I was tagging along with my wife at JoAnn's Fabrics store and noticed that they carry headliner material for $15 a linear yard which was 36"X48". This is exactly what size I needed for the headliner but I didn't want to chance it and bought 2 yards just in case. They had a coupon in their weekly flyer and it only cost me $11 a yard. I bought a small trim paint roller from the dollar store to smooth it out and a can of Permatex headliner adhesive. After tearing off the old headliner, it was rough and uneven. So I decided to put an underliner of leftover weedblocker from an old gardening project. This gave me a good smooth surface to glue onto. I gotta say that I was real happy with the results and saved a lot of money to boot.

 

hey sixgun, good deal.
i made my headliner out of black woven speaker grill material.
if i knew you were looking for headliner material,i could have shared some of mine with you.i have a giant roll of the stuff. let me know if you need any since we live so close. thanks

 

Hey AJE,

Do you by chance do any welding? I'm just about ready to extend that front bumper forward. I bought a second set of bumper brackets and now I need to get some metal to connect them. I don't know if I want to use box tubing or angle iron. The guy that did my exhaust did a pretty good job with some real clean welds. He builds all kinds of stuff on the side. I might just hit him up on a price to do it. Initially I was just gonna put on a gap guard and then I thought about a small brush guard and then some light mounts. My simple project suddenly became complicated.

 

hey sixgun
i do a little bit of welding,but i only have a flux core mig,no gas yet.
it welds ok but without gas its not as nice of a weld.
im on vacation this week,so i may hit up pick and pull on wednsday,just to se if anything good came in. thanks
