Default Jump seat to console mod

Started with a jump seat in my 2005 f150 and bought a 2009-10 center console on ebay to put in it; however as some of you know the mounts are different. I had to build a bracket to get it to fit, which is currently a work in progress but will be done soon.

Started by mocking up a bracket with cardboard. I then cut the front and back mounting points off the jump seat bracket and bought some 2" angle iron for the sides.

A lot of work...did you get a good deal on the '09-'10 console? Why not just buy the '04 to '08 console? It's a direct bolt in.

Good work though on your fabrication.

142 plus 78 for shipping. I couldn't find an 04-08 console and the ones I did find they wanted at least 200 plus 75-100 for shipping

I guess I was lucky. I did an even swap with my jumpseat for one. Other owner wanted a grey jumpseat, and I wanted a console. We each paid shipping to each other. This F150 console is one of the deapest I've ever seen!
