Hi. I'm looking for a suburban console from 67-68 seats typically. Like the one in the pic below.. I have truck type consoles from 67-68 to trade or will buy outright. Rod

also the suburban console does not have the upper portion that can be used as a back rest for the third passenger.

The metal box underneath is different on a suburban console as it is actually lower than a trucks console because there is no need for the upper lid to be mounted. If you look at the pic in the post I linked to you can see the truck console has a higher pivoting top for the upper seat cushion.. no need for that in a sub console..thats the difference.

And I want a sub console.. I have truck console to trade.

67-68 sub console, note pivot point

Rod · 03-25-2004, 01:54 PM

and your 67-68 truck console... note its higher pivot point due to an additinal top lid that flips back for third person back rest.

and a pic of your typical 68 truck buckets with the top cushion folded down for the arm rest ability.

Yep.. I knew that, but now I'm scared Boz-all is coming after me for using your pic.

I'd never get past the border guards. They find clowns carrying cut-off tools somewhat alarming.
