Remove thermostat and reconnect all hoses. Start jeep and warm up. If no heat is present yet, pull hose from thermostat ,have someone start jeep. Increase rpm and notice fluid discharge. It should shoot out like a garden hose as you increase the rpm. If not, more than likely the impellers on the water pump are rusted off. I know this from experience!

Do you still have the crappy heater control valve on the heater hose? If you do it can be getting stuck in the closed position. If that is the case just remove it and bypass it. They are worthless anyways and not needed, In the latter years they stopped installing them.
