The roof installation instruction for Jeep Cherokee Sport and Grand Cherokee ribbed (1984-01 & 1992-98 year). Similar height ribs may interfere with a sunroof install in the Jeep Liberty, Chevy Astro, GMC Safari, and in the rear sections of many full sized SUV’s. In order to accommodate the added thickness of the ribs, longer clamp frame screws or peeling one score off a clamp frame may be required. Install as normal, with any of the following options: Use CS-105 (3/8″ x 7/16″ D-shaped foam seal) as main frame sealant, Measure and cut sunroof hole as usual, Apply self-adhesive CS-105 to sunroof frame (approx. 9 ft. per sunroof). Composite Frame Sunroofs [see illustrations] Composite frames are not as rigid as metal, and tend to twist inward when installed in ribbed or thick roof skins. Use silicone sealant to seal the frame against the roof, and shims prevent the frame from bending out of shape. Procedure: Measure and cut sunroof hole as usual 2. Cut strips of 3/16″ thick material to fit between each rib at the sunroof hole. Run a bead of non-corrosive silicone in troughs between ribs and set strips into it. Fill any gaps with silicone. Objective is to create a flat area for sunroof to seal against. Clean overrun. Allow silicone to set to minimize shifting while installing.3. Cut strips of 1/8″ thick x 1/4″ wide material to fit between clamp ring and main frame. Glue to inside edge of clamp frame, between screw holes. Without this inside shim, the sunroof main frame will twist, causing gaps between the glass and seal which will result in water leaks. if installing a power sunroof with a front mounted drive, motor should be magnetically shielded or the compass will read the motor as magnetic North. Nickel alloy magnetic shielding tape is available from McMaster. DONMAR offers a variety of console modification kits for Trucks & SUV’s — see current product catalog.
