non ac heater

[redneckroot]

My old cab had ac that didn't work and wasn't all there, the new cabs heater is a non ac unit. the only real problem I see is the heater core dumps out on the fender side instead of inline with the coolant lines off the motor, but I am wondering will my old dash work or do I have to run the old crappy ac heater set up?

Tom, I have the non-A/C heater unit from my 86 donor truck. Let me know if you need it. It looks the same as the one in my '92.

Pete if you have a non ac unit in your truck could you send me a picture of how you have the hoses run off the motor to the heater core? Thanks.



On a different note has anyone painted their dash, how did it hold up? What kind of paint did you use?

Well, uh, I couldn't remember which hose went to which port, so I just stuck them on. I can tell you that they go in the fender side of the heater unit. The A/C ones go in the drivers end of it.
All my buddies that have 1st gens, I looked at their trucks for hose routing, and the SOB's all have A/C. Damn them!
