This is my first post after my introduction, so I hope this is the right place for my question. Not too long ago, I bought a 1990 Jeep Cherokee Laredo, but the previous owner stripped to cabin down to the bare metal of the frame. A friend of mine who owns a Jeep shop tells me lots of people do that, but I want to be able to have a console in the vehicle.

I plan to put U-Pol Raptor Liner in the cabin, but I am concerned that the heat coming off of the transmission underneath would cause the liner to melt underneath the console when I have it installed. Do I need to have something there to serve as a heat shield?

Please advise as I am a total rookie here.

Mods, If I have posted this in wrong area, please move to proper venue.

Upol raptor is good for 200*+ for everyday use and can stand up to 300* for short time we bake it dry at 200 so it will be fine

 

I don't know what the po lined the floor with in my jeep but it's stands up to the heat.
I would have a heat shield above the cat and muffler, the floor gets hotter there than the trans tunnel.
