I need the earlier tracks because of the design of the 98-00 seat tracks. The 98-00 seat tracks don't mount to the seat the same was as the older models, the mounting holes from track to seat are in different locations and the lever for seat back is mounted differently. I did not grab the whole seat with track from the junkyard because LKQ near me charges $27 for the seat and then $7 for the manual track so I just snagged the manual tracks. I plan on fitting them together as soon as I get a morning free without rain. Tomorrow morning is looking promising so there is a good chance I'll post pictures of the seats together and in the truck tomorrow. Will still need an Explorer center console though cause I'll have a hard time enjoying my drive without an arm rest.
Waiting to see and hear how it went !Good Luck, hope it goes together easily.
Hard to find these Consoles are ! There a three or four different ones. To me stick to the short one with the Cup Holders in a straight line.Finding one of these in decent condition is harder than getting the correct seat track for your truck !
