I know Autozone, O'Reilly's, and Walmart all around here have some consoles...not too sure if they will fit.

Try your phonebook, they will be listed if they exist.

For some salvage parts, you guys might try a specialty truck salvage yard here in my town that ships nationwide. Nuelle's 4x4 Salvage. I know the owner and he is a good guy. Look them up at www.nuelles4x4salvage.com

eBay's not a bad source either for many parts...

Remember that junkyard guys are trying to make money like everyone else. I've got the fortune of being in good with my local guy, he's a nice redneck, but some of them will try and just get as much money as possible (like the place that wanted $30 for a 4 place fuse box out of an old Chevy).

I'm on my second 1 like that LOL. The first one got faded and worn and the stitching was coming undone so I had to make a trip to wal-mart to get another one.

yeah I got over a year and a half out of a $10 steering wheel cover so I'm not gonna complain. Not to mention that I took my first one out of my Ranger and put it in my 95 F350 and let it go when I traded her in so I got couple years of service out of it.

Zac - sorry to disappear for a few days on this.

I see you have changed game plans some. Let me know if you are still wanting any of this...

The 60/40 just doesn't provide the support, IMHO. It's flat...it reminds me of the seats at school, they're just a flat bottom and a flat back. They sit up straight and awkward, I can't stand them. I'll deal with it for the time being until I can get some suitable replacement bucket seats.

Ok...this weekend will come the time for me to do everything truck related. New radiator, then I'll get the sub box and amp mounting done.
