Vendor Idea - Cup Holder

[nvrenuf]

I saw this on Facebook and supposedly the maker only wants to make these for Fords.

This could be made off of the trans or tcase bolt pattern with the cup holder clocked anywhere.

Seems narrow minded to only focus on ferds. I like the possibilities of tying into shift bezel

You need two drinks when you drive a ferd, you know since you’re waiting for the tow truck

I like the idea but the location would put the cup holders into a fight for position with most gm t-case shifters.

That's why I said the cupholder could be clockable or the assembly could attach to the tcase shifter screws.

Yep clocked to be on driver side. Hot trans tunnel will keep your coffee hot!

I like it.
Feels like some negativity here boys, I’d buy one if I didn’t already have a Tuffy Console.
Only change I’d want is the holders to be the same size (huge) and deep, with steps in the rings for smaller drinks. Clock it where ever. (Even the Tuffy console drink holders aren’t ideal)

Those plastic cup inserts can be sourced at any boat supply place, or even Amazonia

Can someone, with there truck in pieces, measure up the area? I could cut a few.

Mine resembles that remark.

What dims are you looking for? I have auto and manual tunnels exposed.

 

[ktmoutfront]

A few pictures of each with a tape showing hole opening dimensions, bolt hole measurements, etc. For both Auto and stick would be great.

I Like it, I'll have to make one when the time comes. ( I'm not using a factory 4wd shifter)

I would be interested to see it bolt under the NP205 shifter ring so the holder is between the SM65 shifter boot and the seat.

 

[ktmoutfront]

Send pictures with measurements.

 

[joshuak]

Found 2 mostly undisturbed tunnels. Manual tunnel was too butchered to get reasonable dims from.

Hope something works from here, happy to take other pics if wanted.

From k30 with th400/205.






Th400/208. Holder on 208 is stock it’s just lacking the bezel, doesn’t fit comfortably so I put a trim ring around the seal to keep the boot in place.

I will see what I can get made tomorrow.

You need stable power first haha

No kidding. It is amazing how much I can not do without power.

I know. We had an issue on our street a couple weeks ago. Lost a whole leg of feed. Power company ran a jumper from one of the transformers to another box down the street. It’s still like that. I went over and ambushed one of the guys when they were cleaning up asking what was up. Apparently a cable burned up underground and they have to replace the whole shootin match. Now our street is dug up with trench plates over it…
