Seat/center console options for a 98 ranger manual trans stan. cab?

Cold Dark Shadow · Jan 8, 2008

I have the the 60/40 split w/ the side flip open armrest.
Is/was there an option for a center console and 2 bucket seats?
Not a big fan of bench seats but id want like a full center console or something for beween them

You can use the Exploder console and Buckets. They will fit nice in the Ranger and also look good too.

If you are in no rush I might have a exploder console for sale here in the next couple of weeks.

Im in no hurry,
Does it all bolt right in?

For the most part. There is a bracket that you can use some self tappers and mount the bracket to the floor, then the unit will slide into a set of holes already in the dash.

Acouple more self tappers and shes secure.

I will let you know what direction I go with my console.

Sweet, and that will work with a manual trans?
Let me know whenever, id still ahve to hunt down seats and whatever else id need
Thanks

Yep. On the front section were it meets the dash, has acouple diveder in it for the exploders, but once you remove a few bolts it leaves an opening that is perfect for the shifter to fit through and shift through all the gear perfect. You will however need to either make or get a new shift boot, but other than that she is golden .

As in center console, or seats ?

The years for the center consol will be anything up until they changed body style in 02, I believe. The full length console will work, however there is a slight gap on the bottom. but can easily be fixed.

And you can even get one of the center consoles that are from the older models the fit between the seat and are a tad bit longer than the seats, if you are not a major fan of the full length consoles.

As for seat you can put anything thing you want in there, you may however need to modify your seet brackets/ tracks. But what ever you like you can fit in there.

Center console, i was thining full from the dash to up between the seats
As for seats i meant straight bolt in from like an Explorer
I know any seat can be made to fit,

As for seats I do believe that only the exploder seats will bolt right in, but you might want to check your seat tracks. I know my 05 seats are actually attached to the seat frames and I did not want to tear anything up so I am in the process of modifing another set to make em fit nice and neatly.
