Transmission Hump

I have a '62 F100 4WD, and am buying a new floor mat. Vendors list options for either a tall (8") or a short (5") transmission hump, and most of the vendors say that all 4WDs have the tall hump.

I measured from a spot about half-way between the firewall and the bench seat, and in-between the manual and 4WD stickshifts - it was just under 5", so different from what LMC/NPD etc., write.

Anyone have any thoughts? Am I measuring from the wrong spot, and should I just go with the 8"

Jay;
Welcome aboard; I've ask Number Dummy this same question with even adding if the vehciles vin data was a way to help determine this height; he told me that its bascially a guessing game to determine (Obsolute part) all remanufacture or if you come across OEM part prolly be crack from being in a box rolled & folded up. Its even harder to determine especially with vendors telling you that 4x4 are large hump; and you measure roughly for the description of a small hump cover. Hopefully someone has experience this issue and will chime in.

All old type cab four wheel drives received the removable pan. Does your truck have it?

What transmission do you have?

I was told I don't remember by who that the 5" hump is a 3 speed, IE no hole is the floor model, and the 8" was for the 4 speeds. I don't remember who, told me this, but i have a 3 speed and I ordered the 5" hump version and it fits perfect. I bought mine from Carolina Classics. (Only because I know saying mine fits begs the question where did I get it.)

Broom,


You have a 65 the poster has a 62. Two entirely differing floor pans and floor mats.

61 to 65 F100 4x4
61 to 66 F250 4x4
61 to 64 F100 F250 all share the same floor pan.

Later trucks using the new floor pan received a smaller cover about 1'x2'.

Here is a photo of the differences on add on floor pans. Each is a high hump 4x4 or four speed on the floor.



The black pan is a 65 through 79 pan. The grey pan is a 61 to 66 with the old step type cab.

Garbz, thanks for posting the pics - that was great of you.

I have the same as the grey one on the right, with the exception of the additional hole for the 4WD shift - I take it that's the 8"?

My Truck ID lists the transmission as "F", so I can do some research to see what that is.

F for 62 is a Warner T98 A Four Speed.

Order the tall hump manual transmission on the floor floor mat for a 61 to 64.

You will need to cut the holes for the trans case shifter and trans.
