Found a great fix for my headliner that was sagging and flapping around. Just pulled it down, scraped everything off down to the base and got some expanding foam and gave it a good layer. Leveled it out with a knife and just 3M spray adhesived some auto fabric of the same color back onto it. It turned out really good and it has held up great.

 

Did you use the foam for large gapping holes or the ones made to fill small cracks that doesn't over expand? Pics of the procedure?

 

I ended up taking mine out altogether, Broken trim and all..I and when I replace it I will make a new one out of vinyl automotive material. Mabe with a big "C" stitched into it.

 

Doesn't matter what kind because your going to want to flatten it out with a putty knife.
I wish I had taken pics of the process at the time. For the big chunks that were missing, I just set a piece of newspaper down and then just kind of 'free formed' with the foam. If you smash the foam down with a putty knife to flatten it out a bit, it's better. But once it's dry, you can pretty much cut it to any shape you want. So that's how I filled in some of the missing parts. Can get a little messy when you flatten it out but I have too say it's a heck of a lot stronger than the original headliner. I will try and get some pics of the one in the truck.

 

Finally got a picture - hadn't realized it's been sitting for about 8 years, but I think it held up fairly well.

 

Jo-Ann has great headliner foam backed material sold by the yard in both slate grey and desert tan.

Here are a couple pics of the tan in my 1993. Did the install myself one afternoon.

 

I used the material from Joanne's aswell in my reg cab... Very pleased... My buddy used it in a ranger and was very pleased

 

1. My interior is the same color as yours and my OEM headliner is a much darker tan. Your new one seems more white than tan?
2. What is involved in installing the new material from Jo-Ann's? That is, do you remove the OEM headliner and then use spray glue to attach the new unit directly to the sheet metal ceiling of the cab?

(After 23 years, my OEM fabric is separating from the foam backing. Both fabric and foam seem to be in great shape but I don't know how I could ever re-glue the fabric to the foam, so I'm thinking a full replacement is probably my best option.)

TIA.

 

A upholstery suppler will have a better range of colors to chose from.
I am not a big fan of the foam backed material. The problem is the foam drys out and the cloth drops off the backer.

 

I gave the Upholstery guy next door a $100 he took it out fixed it and put it back in. my buddy's dont about it anymore some things it just pays to have someone do it for you for me this was one of them Ken

 

Looks great!
