1964 CJ5 heater and defrost

Hi everyone!

Jon is trying to find info on the original heater and defrost for his 1964 CJ5. Yes, we did a search. Does anyone out there have pics of the original heater and defrost set up, or can tell us what heater was in the jeep?

:smash: He is driving me nuts!:drivinglease note, I can't see over the dash.

 

the haynes manual has a great drawing.

 

I am not sure which assy was installed factory, either the vacuum or manual setup. I put a vacuum setup in my 1960. I bought a NOS vacuum plenum off ebay, the motor and core from this board, and then the heater control assy on eBay as well. The vacuum plenum was a direct bolt on. Someone will know for sure.
Here are a couple pics to get you started.

Vacuum controls



Manual setup controls

 

From a 1960 Operators Manual, so originally was the push/pull manual setup I would think. Mine did have a later body so that may be why the vacuum plenum assy bolted up.

 

Here is a pic of the engine compartment portion of the heater assy (driver's side)

 

Oh we like pics. Another example of the heater control manual set-up.

 

Keep in mind the stock motor is worthless for providing heat to the cab. Someone will chime in who has used a Mojave heater. I just wanted to keep mine fairly stock looking.

 

Oh yeah, place an ad in the WTB classifieds on this site.

 

Not sure of when things changed, but here is what the newer ones looked like:

My '64 CJ5 is all original and came with the vacuum-operated heater Kevin posted above.

 

I am building up my post count with this thread and probably getting more info than you wanted! Here is a link I was looking for that covers a motor upgrade which would keep it looking stock, but might ACTUALLY work to heat up the cab.

And a pic from the manual


And finally one where the vacuum source is.

 

Wow THANKS ALL Jon
