'02 Dodge Ram / JottoDesk Short Stack

Post by KB5AKO »

Fellas,

I have an '02 Dodge Ram pick-up and I want
to install a JottoDesk short stack 9" console.
It will house a Spectra, BC-785, & a Maxtrac.

What am I doing wrong here?
I can't embed my image here.

The image can be viewed at http://www.kb5ako.dyndns.org

Does anyone else have a setup like this?
How about pictures?

Suggestions are welcome.
The existing 40/20/40 & arm rest/console stays.

I'll post pictures of it after installation.

You want to embed the url of the image itself, not the url to the page that displays the image, thusly:

(without the spaces between the tags and the url)

definately a nicer looking console than the one i got, but it might be a little low of a reach in a truck. especially if you're like me and ride with the center seat back flipped down as an armrest. i have an '04 and went with an add-on section from a gall's console. not as much room in the faceplate area, but a few inches taller. puts it right where your fingertips would fall if your hand was hanging off the front of the armrest. here's a pic. you're looking at the front section only. needed a bit of work since it's not meant to be a stand-alone console, but it's working out ok so far.

AHH, the obligatory galls-bashing. lol. i know but like i said, it's the only one that i found that was high enough for me. please if there are better options, both victor and myself would love to see them.
