    Raul console

    I'm looking at getting a new to me Ranger. My question is...
    Can the passenger side console on a Z520 be removed and look like it was never there?

    It can be taken out, but there will be holes to cover up with matting or something. Sometimes during removal the glue will pull the gel off of the bottom of where the console was screwed to the back of the rod box also. Lots of guys have done it and I think it looks dandy, but to never know it was there will require fiberglass work more than likely sir.

    Just to add to Roger post, u can order a pod to cover up most all that ugly looking stuff, the only place then is a place about two inches wide by 6 inches long that is left, we take a peace of rubber mat and cover that up with the mat, all looks factory done. The peace u cover in on the rod storage box next to the step up. Those pods are right at 500.00 but looks real nice.

    By the way welcome to the BBC Ranger brother

    Thanks for the Welcome. Sounds like if I want a single console I would be better off to just find one. Instead of making one. I'll keep looking....

    its really pretty easy. Also, if you do get one I have my pod from where it was a single console I wil sell you cheap! I will not go back to a single console and I would like the extra parts gone.

    Did my 06 Z21, with parts from Ranger, looks like a factory, single console, I can't figure out how to post pics from my Mac, but I have alot of customizations Id like to show.

    I can't leave anything stock, I can't leave well enough alone.
    I need to customize everything. I think I can improve others
    designs, sometimes.
