All the places I look have regular cab but does anyone know where to get a Supercab headliner or headliner board from?

 

I have been looking myself, no one has them.





You may have to buy two reg cab headliners, cut and section them in. Ive seen it done, didn't look too bad.

 

I am actually rolling with no headliner right now, sprayed it flat black and use magnets to hold all my crap to the ceiling.


It kinda sucks, drafty and damp, but doesn't look too bad and lots of useful storage for maglites and stuff.......until a repro supercab headliner turns up somewhere.

 

The problem is getting material large enough. I made one out of a office chair mat for hardwood floors, but it's really not stiff enough. Next time I think I will try a counter top laminate which can be purchased in a big enough piece.

There also was a suggestion in a recent post to use a head liner from an obs ford and cut it to fit.

 

If you have a pattern that you can trace or are handy AND patient with fitment, go to the yards, find a headliner from the bullnose that is in good shape and make yours. It has enough material to do the job. Or if you are lucky enough, a quadcab will be there.....

I have one. Don't ask, it's not for sale.

Mine is warped but will work as a template. I just can't find any suitable board over 4 foot wide.. Someone said that plasticy shower backing board was available in 8x8 sheets but I haven't found it.

 

I bet you could make some money here by making templates and shipping them out in paper roll holders. That would save us guys a lot of time installing.

 

I've had really good luck with making fiberglass supercab headliners.


Using a 5'x5' sheet of foam board as a flat mold (covering it with lots of car wax as a mold release) and then laying up 6 layers of 7781 (aerospace type weave that is really dense) with a polyester resin. It makes a flexible but strong sheet that can be held up with only the outer trim and does not need the center screws like the original. It's also completely moister/water proof. I think you could prep it for paint fairly easily but I've only seen them covered with headliner material.


I've made a few of these for other FTE members and also the one that's in my supercab.

That is really nice, do you mold it flat or with the curve of the cab? Are those speakers and the center console molded in or added afterwards?

 

Thanks guys for all the info. I am asking for a guy on our Texas Facebook page. I have a crew cab and when I bought it the back headliner was down in the seat. I almost threw it away figuring I would just buy a new one. I sure am glad I held onto them.

 

Buckin bronco. How much would it be to have one of those made?

 

very interested as well! but I am curious are you able to mold speaker buckets in? I know that what you have pictured is more of a 99 and new overhead console which I would totally love to have but I think having a couple over head speaker in the back corners might not be such a bad thing. I say that because I have a 3 year old who cant leave anything alone and I really dont want to be replacing speaker grills every other month.

 

If I had some big *** paper I'd do it for cost of shipping. But you're talking about a 4 foot wide roll... Don't even know where to find paper that big!

 

Where do you live? I've thought about making these but it turns out shipping is crazy expensive for something this big. There is 120$ in just materials to make one.

 

i am in central Texas.
