Center Consoles

I was told that these are obsolete through Ford.These trucks aren't that old,so I'm wondering why Ford chose to discontinue these?

I know there are custom consoles available through the aftermarket, but I'm looking for an O.E.M.-style console.

I don't know, but here's a link to one that might be for your year Bronco: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1859741532

yo D!
Yes, E BAY or try some other dealers. A local dealer quoted a complete console @ approx. $275.00. It wasn't assembled and the parts list indicated every scew, washer, hinge, etc. needed to be oredered individually.
We opted for a Tuffy Console because it is stronger, well-built and cheaper than buying the OEM console.

This is probably a fluke if it's still available and the Bronco console isn't, but a co-worker has a '91 extended cab F150 with the buckets and the same console as the one used in the Bronco. I wonder if, by some chance, Ford would call the Bronco console discontinued but not the one for the F150? I know that Bronco Graveyard was advertising used ones in their catalog.....

Thanks for the help, everyone.The console on ebay is the right one,but the wrong color(it's gray,but I'm looking for a blue one).I'm either going to call that Bronco Graveyard place,or check locally in some yards.The O.E.M. price for one was $371.61,according to fordpartsonline.com , but they've told me everything has been discontinued. Oh, well,what are you going to do? I found a yard about two,or three months ago that had a '87,with a blue interior/console.Before I got there,somebody else bought it.DOH!
