92_rugby_subie Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Well, the carpet in my 84 GL Wagon is toast. I took out the back carpet, and its just on metal now, looks better... Thinking that for the inside rear cargo area and the back of the rear seats, I will see if I can get that spray on bed liner in there, so that its durable for throwing parts on and also looks cool. Also want to tear out the front carpets and do the same thing, or something similar for mudding, my dad had an F350 that he lifted and used for construction, drilled hole in the floorboards and just hosed it out when it was dirty, pros and cons? Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl33py Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 There's some OEM dampener/tar mats on the metal now. To get the best adhesion you may want to get rid of those. BUT it WILL make it quite a bit louder without any dampening on those panels. Another option is a product called lizard skin (i think) - which is a spray on liner that also is a dampener. If money isn't an issue then check out second skin's product line... good but $$. GL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sick of being hot in there and not knowing how to get the other power windows to work.. I've got a full set of Metallic green wagon doors with manual windows. Or I can make you're power windows work. either way PM me and make an offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I've got a full set of Metallic green wagon doors with manual windows. Or I can make you're power windows work. PO changed the driver's door to a manual one and cut the window harness off at the jam . Probably just needs some wires jumped in the harness to complete the circuit to the other windows. This car is a nightmare. And part of the harness is melted from a fire - don't underestimate what may be required to make those windows work.

sl33py Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Scrape the rubber up with a heat gun and putty knife. Hurculiner and done. GD Dry ice for the win! Did this in my landcruiser - even better than heatgun is dry ice. get one or two 5lb bags - let it sit on the tar then hit it with one of those rubber/plastic head hammers - comes right off (and in big chunks). My brother and I did my entire FJ60 in about 1.5-2 hours this way. Let the dry ice sit for a minute or two on the next spot you will be going. having a second bag helps speed it up - an extra set of hands of course helps. HTH - GL!

92_rugby_subie Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 Thanks guys Im still not sure what I will do yet, I have SOOO many ideas and I dont know where to start and what to do first, I want the windows soon since the back window apparently isnt up all the way and rains coming.. and somehow a broken 1997 escort gets to sit in my subarus spot in the garage while my subaru sits in the rain? That is LAME:mad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
