5" Center Console Lift Brackets | 1981-1987/91

Installation Instructions

What you need to know first:

• You will remove your center console first.
  
• Leave the factory brackets on the floor — don’t remove those.
  
• Keep the bolts that hold the console to the floor. You will reuse these to mount the new brackets.
  
• We give you bolts to put the bracket together and to bolt the console to the bracket.
  
• You might need to take out one or both front seats to make installation easier.
  

Steps:

1. Take out your center console.
   

• Remove it from the truck but leave the factory floor brackets in place.
  

2. Keep your old bolts safe.
   

• These bolts will be used to attach the new lift brackets to the floor.

3. Get your new bracket parts ready.
   

• You have 4 pieces: 2 end pieces (both the same) and 2 side pieces (both the same).
  
• Put all parts on a bench or table.

4. Set up the end pieces.
   

• Face the two end pieces toward each other like they’re looking at each other.
  
• Flip the left one upside down so one end piece’s tabs are on the bottom and the other’s tabs are on the top.

5. Attach the side pieces.
   

• Use the side pieces to connect the two end pieces.
  
• Loosely bolt them together — don’t tighten yet.

6. Bolt the lift bracket to the floor.
   

• Use your saved factory bolts to attach the bracket to the floor brackets.
  
• Keep the bolts loose for now.

7. Attach your center console to the lift bracket.
   

• Use the hardware we provided to bolt the console to the bracket.
  
• Leave these bolts loose too.

8. Choose your console position.
   

• There are two options:
  

• 1 inch forward (bracket rotated 180 degrees)
  
• 1 inch back (default position)
  

• We recommend the 1 inch back position for more shifter clearance, but you pick what feels right.

9. Tighten all bolts.
   

• When everything is lined up and in place, tighten all bolts securely.

10. Finish up!
    

• Put your seats back if you removed them.
  
• Your console lift installation is done!
