I already have the center console out of one but the seats were crap so im gona try and cut out the center of my 60/40 ..

the console bolts it with two plates one in the back with 4 bolts and one in the front with two .. it looks like ya have to drill some holes for the bolts to make it work.
get the explore seats it's well worth it

Thats a nice first gen! :icon_thumby:love the work you are doing to it.

I just wish that rangers of any generation where in the junkyards around here, it makes it hard to find parts for cheap.

Rockin the blue! IDK why but nobody seems tolike that interior color choice. Personally I love it, that's the color I had in the 84 and what'll be going into (well staying in) my 86. Kinda wish I had buckets but not as much room to play with mine's a std cab, luckily the Rangers did have a nice factory bench style.
