I really want a 90's Dodge type of center console that flips up to become a seat back and flips down to become a huge center console. I need a console and cup holders, but I have to be able to seat 3 people if need be.

That's the way mine are. JCW sells a brand called Qualitex and thats exactly how mine are. I'll try to get some pics for you.

yeah but nobody setup up a doubler with the sticks in line and on the drvers side. none of these trucks had the shifter on the drivers side. truck doesnt look like it would be worthy of a doubler.

thats whats got me cornfused.

203 converted to part-time by a previous owner. No cables; cross-over linkage welded to the bottom of the transmission cover.

*2tons of fun* · 12-31-2009, 01:51 AM

Not bad, these trucks have alot of room. I normally have 2 people but if I have 3 its my son in the middle, he is small. We drove 4hrs up to maggey valley with my son and a friend and it was comfy.

How/where would you attach/secure these consoles to the floor?

Slick17 · 12-31-2009, 03:56 PM

You would prolly have to make some L brackets to bolt in down.

qu1cks1lver56 · 12-31-2009, 07:12 PM

Most likely what I'll do is make some kind of bracket.

yes the vinyl and foam is stripped off

*C-10 simplex* · 01-01-2010, 12:50 AM

Right, but where would you bolt the brackets?

qu1cks1lver56 · 01-01-2010, 01:34 AM

through the floor? ill probably weld up some brackets to the floor, and just bolt the console to them.

grinch4om · 01-01-2010, 10:57 AM

yep...foam gone...it's different and I'm contemplating door card made similar but who knows, I may run into an interior...would love a complete black or red or maroon interior.....
