Should I bedliner or fabric the headliner I can't decide... GO!

 

voted bedliner but changed my mine. fabric would deaden the sound better and I'd like to see how you do it

 

I did mine in camo fabric... in was going to do bed liner but I thought it would look crappy. Fabric is a lot more work though

 

i pulled the liner on mine out and left the insulation and sprayed it with rubberized undercoat

 

yea but fabric also absorbs sound so in that aspect bedliner would be better but I just want what will look the best/coolest.

I voted for headliner, but if you really want to be different.... Spray a sound deadener (rubberized undercoat, foam, etc) on the bare metal and reinstall the headliner. That would definitely soak up a lot of noise, but would be a waste of money.

I think the headliner is always a good way to go. You can use any fabric you prefer, if it is padded or foam lined its even better.

 

Fabric

 

I just ripped mine out and called it a day.

 

Lizard skin then headliner !

 

I am adding deadener to the roof anyways. If I bedliner the headliner it would only help.

 

I'm gunna say go with fabric headliner because xjs make a lot of noise on the highway if it were just a trail rig i'd say bedliner

 

That stuff stinks something awful.I couldn't imagine the smell in the cab.

Pee eww.

 

I pulled the cloth off our headliner a while ago and it was just raw fiberglass. It was okay for a minute but not for long. Thanksgiving last year I got two cans of 3m adhesive spray glue and 10ft of gray headliner and the kids and I re lined the headliner in the garage while momma did the holiday meal. In the end the result was like factory and I had the pleasure of involving and teaching the kids how to do something. While the liner was out of the jeep, the hardest part is getting it out, I put about two regular size sheets of hushmat on the roof cut in 6" strips between the ribs. The hushmat definitely helped with noise levels and helped the 2-12" subs sound better. Make sure you coat both the liner and the roof form with spray glue and it helps to have two people help hold the ends while you smooth the liner on in the middle to avoid wrinkles as you only get ONE shot without making a huge mess. hope this helps. Total time for me was 3 hours.

 

I used a rubberized undercoating spray on mine. Works great, looks good and youll NEVER have to worry about it sagging again.
