Re: winter,,brrr cold,,
Go get a really crazy BTU auxillary heater. I had one in my '88 YJ and it
was unreal. 10 minutes of warming up and it was toasty oats time. Next year
I'm putting one in my CJ so I can winter drive it. And yea ...do the blower
motor upgrade too. And ya, make sure you buy the "low-end" motor and not the
premium one. I made the mistake of putting the premium one in and it took
quite a few "modifications" to make it fit ;p

Re: winter,,brrr cold,,
Hey Mike, I also did the upgrade, lots of heat now too, as for defrosting
windows, my front window center section take forever to defrost, it's the
area approx. from wiper mount to wiper mount. Looking at the defrost vents
on top of dash, they both angle away from center, could you have a look at
your's and see which way the little louver like things point.

Re: winter,,brrr cold,,
That is a strange spot isn't it. I was in a major snowstorm and that
spot kept packing up on me. This was only with the soft top and doors
on though to the heat level wasn't way up there, just comfortable.
The vents on mine have the long space at the outside with the smaller
slots to the center. I tried it the other way when I first was
installing it just to see and it didn't work at all.
I will see this winter. If I get a pack up on a long trip I might be
tempted to try a diverter on the two inside slots to aim them down or
even just drill a couple holes in the center of the frame to let air
straight up.

Re: winter,,brrr cold,,
That is a strange spot isn't it. I was in a major snowstorm and that
spot kept packing up on me. This was only with the soft top and doors
on though to the heat level wasn't way up there, just comfortable.
The vents on mine have the long space at the outside with the smaller
slots to the center. I tried it the other way when I first was
installing it just to see and it didn't work at all.
I will see this winter. If I get a pack up on a long trip I might be
tempted to try a diverter on the two inside slots to aim them down or
even just drill a couple holes in the center of the frame to let air
straight up.
