Default Re: Get to know me and my Ranger

Thanks Bob

Today I did my limit by prepping my headliner for new Fabric.

Now not only my back and neck hurts but I itch from head to toe LOL.

I peeled the fabric off and used a stiff wire brush to brush off the foam backing.

I was surprised to see that the headliner board was made of fiberglass Foam and some sort of card board material sandwich. It sure is an improvement of what I had to deal with in the past.

By the time I realized there was fiberglass involved I had it all over me.

Normally I will coat myself down with baby powder before messing with fiberglass.

Oh well lesson learned.

BTW I like the your Ranger in Black but I wouldn't want to have to try and keep it clean this time of year with all the pollen we are getting.

Fiberglass is some itchy stuff for sure,dealt with it before,makes me itch to think about it.LOL!

Luckily I have a garage to keep my truck in. Rain is the problem now,in the Spring,rains about every three days and keeps me busy keeping it clean, but keeps me out of trouble.LOL!

Check out AutoZone they seem to offer manual TSB recalls etc for free I came across a thread on this site that was promoting it.
I know AutoZone gets their information from Alldata so you may get some I doubt all access to the same information Alldata has.

When I get time I will log on and compare my subscription to what Auto Zone is offering for free.
