Interior heater removal. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have decided to install the Jegs heater in my 71 C20. At some future time (when funding permits) i plan on installing a heat and air system.
Before i head out and start ripping stuff out, i was wondering if anyone has words of advice? The underhood parts of the heating system has already been removed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. Daron

If the heater box under the hood is gone the inside is a breeze to remove. A couple of screws and it's done pluse the wiring but you can take it and clip it off are bundle it up up under the dash someplace out of the way.

Thank you. After using some unusual words, and calming my shaking hands, I was able to get all of the interior parts removed. Found a good many dead wasps. Lol. Started to mount the Jegs heater. The sun went down, so i stopped. Will hopefully finish this week.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
