Cup Holder
Had to make something for a cup holder, as there just isn't too much available out there.
This is in my Jimmy, but would work for a column shift truck too. Test fitting prior to carpet install. Pat |

Re: Cup Holder
Pretty cool idea, I don’t think I have seen that before. How is it when you reach for the drink? Are you going to bolt it in place?

It's not too bad at all when reaching for a drink. Obviously not as nice as it would be if in a console, but definitely doable. After dynamat and carpeting, I intend to secure (bolt) it into place. I would hate to have an accident and have that piece of iron become a projectile inside the cab. Pat |

Re: Cup Holder
Nice. I used a old S 10 shifter and cup holder in my 71 C 10. I cut the front/back on the console off so it would fit.

Re: Cup Holder
I did something similar using two pieces of exhaust tubing welded to a flat plate with a small extension with a hole drilled in it so I could slip it under the trim ring of the shifter and hole it in place with one of the trim screws.

Re: Cup Holder
That's a Lincoln Navigator or Ford Expedition console.
