Who sells coolant cab heaters?

[Somemedic]

Im looking and googled and ran a search on SS but really cant seem to find a surplus joint selling cab heaters. Any ideas like memphis? I just cant seem to find them and if I get an idea of how much they are that would move an auction deuce w/ heat up or down on the my watch list.

I sold my last complete NOS kit to a friend, but I have enough left over parts to make up several coolant heaters kits. pm me for details.

Check with HALFTRACK on this list. He has several used, but complete, kits. I got one from him.

Speaking of heaters, and not to hijack this thread, but does anyone know where I might find the 'stand' for the coolant heater in the M809 series trucks? The heaters mount on the right side of the cummins engine in the 5 tons. There is a 'platform' or 'stand' that kind of sets the heater in front of and above the humungus muffler which is over the top of the fenderwell. I'm guessing it also acts as a heat shield. Any help in finding one would be appreciated.

Since you bring it up... I'm in the market for one as well... I've got the heater (pulled it from a gasser five ton), but need that mounting shelf in order to install it in my XM813. So, if anyone knows of one for Armada and one for me...

Saturn has them and so does TNJ Murry, priced the same for a complete kit $475.

my 813 has it mounted on drivers side inner fender---I have the heater and stand from another 813 but to ship it the freight rates will kill ya

 

[Somemedic]

Memephis quoted NOT the original but an updated heater that fits and appearntly the parts are much easier to find in the event it fails. $400

 

[FormerNewMVGuy]

The kits from saturn and Murry also include the winter front radiator cover

Groundhog, would you be interested in parting with just the heater stand?

Can you take a few photos of the setup so I can see how it all gets stuffed in or send me a description of how it was installed?
Thanks.

Good idea, Ditto.

will work on getting photos---but the heater is not in a truck---I got it from a parts truck--why not put your heater on drivers side like mine--I have seen other m-813 with heater on drivers side---eliminates the need for the support---watch photos on GL--some times you will see them on drivers side---groundog

Hmmm, perhaps my photo request wasn't as clear as I thought...
I was thinking about doing this tpe of instalation on my XM813 (mounting the heater on the driver's side) since I have seen a few trucks setup this way and since you mentioned it was the setup you had. I was asking for photos of the instalation in your truck, not the uninstalled heater setup, so I could see how the core, hoses, switches, and defroster box got mounted...
Thanks.

Here is a pic I was sent awhile ago by a member who was going to sell me a heater kit for my xm818. Never hear back that he was ready to sell though.

I will need a heater before winter sets in here in NH. I liked the Swing Fiire multi-fuel heater I had in my Unimog. The cab was warm in minutes. Anyone install one like this in their deuce?

I also found a real nice hot water heater replacement below for a great price.

Somemedic--- look at auction 3547--lot 2601---all most identical to my M-813 set up---remember the m-35 and M813 use the same cab only the fenders are longer on M-813

Thats good to know.

Im still working on the "get truck" portion of the equation since Drexel didnt pan out. I wanted to know how hard it would be to get a heater if the truck I got didnt have one. Also helped me prioritized heater trucks from non... In the future I dont think it will matter either way if theres a heater or not since they can be had and installed relatively easily.
