PING Jim Meyer - Line-x photos

Feb 04, 2004 3 Replies

Per a previous thread titled "spray on bedlining inside a jeep" here are some pictures you requested.



This is a 80 CJ-7. When this guy bought this jeep, he took the tub off and had a Line-X brand liner sprayed inside the tub, under the tub, and inside the engine compartment. Then took the tub to a body shop who made it look sharp and gave in new exterior paint. The entire tub is either new paint or Line-X now. His is very particular about his jeep, keeps it very well maintained, and is meticulous about it. He has 2 complaints about the Line-X liner, and those are that his master brake cylinder has been leaking a little and it has destroyed the Line-X where it contacted the oil. I was surprised at how it was turned to a very soft rubber and can easily be peeled away. The second complaint is that when dirt gets worked into the Line-X it is difficult to clean so that it looks like factory new again. He says that it takes a while to clean it back to that "new" look.



I was not sure how to show the liner well in a photo except for making it high-res, but I am also showing a smaller version of the same photo if you need it:

Great pictures! Man, that came out nice. I haven't seen one before where the did the inside of the whole engine compartment. It sounds like a good idea, but I guess with all the leaks of an older vehicle some problems are to be expected.

Thanks for posting this.

I don't know the difference in price but rhino lining is warranteed against chemical damage. My dodge 150 pick-up had oil, gas and sulphuric acid (not at the same time) spilled in it at times and it did not even discolor the liner.

I think they are similar in price. I liked the Rhino I had in the bed of my truck as well. Oil, gas no problems. There must be something in brake fluid that is more aggressive. I found the warranty on Line-X as well

I am sure theywill fix this Jeeps bubble problem, but I see how they could make a warrantyprocess a pain if they wanted to
