heater thingy is behind the dashboard, whole dashboard out to access it. Not a fun job.
You'll need to keep an eye on your coolant if it is leaking, you don't want it getting low and the car overheating...

Yep i can see the picture of ur Jimny ! Nice color man, looks very straight and clean !
As regards the brake issues, same symptoms for any car with warped brake discs, however you should be able to feel significant vibrations and wobble all over the place , not just the brake pedal, the steering wheel will usually feel like its gona come off from the vibrations !
Good luck with your lift and be sure to post pictures, i am doing a 3" on mine when the kits and extra bits arrive !
Good luck , Fearghal
