M715 heater in M37

Post by snowdad »

Anybody have any experiance in installing the 24v M715 heater in an M37. Just saw some today on the internet and wondered if it would look factory and if it would install without any modifications. Price was very attractive and it had the military look.

I would think the glove compatment would be in the way of the install. It could be done I suppose but it will take a little fabricating. Also I'm not sure you would have enough firewall to mount that to.

I can't really tell by looking at that one; my MUTT heater went in so easily (except for the head plug) I'd recommend it to anyone else thinking of a heater install. I know Hingsing and others have used the same setup.

The M715 heater is the Jeep Gladiator Pick Truck firewall mounted heater with a 24V blower. Not a stand alone heater like the M151 one is. That is why I think it might be more effort to install on a M37 as the firewalls are different.
