heater box mounting
« on: July 12, 2016 - 01:43:21 PM »
what mounts the heater box (non-ac). Is it just the "hook" on one end and nuts for the 3 studs that are around the motor?
what type of nuts where used for fire wall?

1/4 -20 nuts with 1/2''spin washers. Some people use gold, some use black.

You could also take length of 3/16" threaded rod and bend/cut your own if you were stuck. Really easy if you have access to a torch. Just my  :2cents:
