The Ultimate Diesel Heater Setup for your RTT!

Episode 005 - The Ultimate RTT Diesel Heater Build?!

Welcome to Two Track Nation! In this episode, we are building a custom diesel heater setup for Chase's GX470. The unique part about this is that it will be a fully self-contained setup, semi-permanently mounted on his rig for complete minimal setup.

We will walk you through the entire process from concept, through the build, to testing in the field. While we realize not everyone has this exact setup, it may give you some ideas for your build! We also have the entire list of parts down below.
