Niel,
I have a 46 1/2 ton with a heater from the AD line in it. It works great -
there is the attachment to run the two hoses up to the windshield and
attaching to the optional heater kit. This kit has two ends that look like
a vacuum hose attachments that screw under the dash. You can pick these
units up in junk yards for about $40.00. The hose and attachments I got
from Carter's for around $20.00. If you talk to the used parts department
you can get the needed clips and hose ends for short money.

I want to add a small heater to my 46. I need to keep the cost down, and
don't need A/C as the weather is fairly mild. Has anyone used the small 7"
square heater boxes that are made for hot rods They are basically a small
coil that runs off the water pump, and a fan unit. Southern Air makes a
model for about $110. It has three "doors" on it. I am considering getting
it and making small shrouds over the doors and then ducting the heat to each
side of the cab, and up to the defrost openings below the windshield. Any
thoughts? Other options? Thanks.
