Did that center console assembly come from an explorer with a manual transmission? The reason I ask is because the front panel in the console where your shifter comes through is completely open and doesn't appear to have been cut.I tinkered for about an hour between jobs today and I also made a block off plate at work during lunch. It is for the giant hole I cut in the floor for my shifter.
Then I installed it
I took a few pictures but didn't have much time and it started raining again.
Here is the F550 master cylinder, it looks very similar to the ranger version except it has a larger bore and therefore needs the hole it sits in enlarged.
On most Explorers/Mountaineers with the V8 there are either two storage trays or a message center in the front panel (it's not a completely open space). I'll be using a ZF in my '00 Ranger behind my 5.0, so I'm going to attempt to use a similar center console setup so the metal plate covering the cut in the floor is hidden and I can still have cup holders
