16+ Ford Explorer Console Shift Cup

thingiverse

Being that 2016 and up Explorer center consoles do not have the chrome ring like previous model years, a bigger shift cup is required. Measurements were made of the shifter hole and various test prints were done in order to achieve the correct dimensions. It fits the shifter hole with slight resistance, which I wanted, to achieve a friction fit. My first full print of this is made of PLA, which probably won't last too long in a hot car. So I recommend printing using ABS or another heat resistant material, which I will be doing in the future. I am new to 3D printing, so I'm sure further modifications can be made to achieve an even better print. In addition to changing the length and width dimensions, I also increased the depth a bit to 50 mm to get a deeper cup. Full Dimensions are: 82.75 mm Wide, 159 mm Long, and 50 mm deep.
