I have had 2 Cherokees, (91, and 2000) And they both ended up with very saggy headliner cloth. Is this a common problem in Jeeps? Anyway, I found a kit on line that comes with new cloth and the adhesive for about $60. it seems easy enough. Did anybody else replaced their headliner?

I did it myself. I just went to a fabric store and bought some headliner and went to walmart and bought some 3m headliner glue I then went home and pulled out the old headliner and cleaned off all the old fabric then sprayed the glue and laid down the fabric
make sure you leave around six inches of fabric hanging off the side so you can lap it around the sides so it looks clean when you reinstall it then just reinstall it and your done

Recently did mine, but I used one I got out of a C4C XJ. Re-install is a 2-man job, especially with the heavy built in speakers on the rear-most end. Not heavy for me, but heavy enough to want to bend theat end of the board while installing.

yea, I have the speaker box in mine to. In the 91, its 2 pieces. But in the 2000, the box is molded into the headliner board. I guess I could just take the speakers out. Im getting rid of them anyway.
