Product Information

MSRP: $350.00
Average Price: $265.30
Manufacturer: TUFFY
Recommended?
Yes: 15 / No: 0

This 16-gauge steel security console has a separate lockable compartment for mounting a stereo or other electronic equipment. The rear compartment provides additional lockable storage for more valuables. The new sleek fit design and retractable stereo compartment lid matches the TJ’s refined interior and offers more interior storage than the previous model.


MOUNTING:
Mounts to factory holes, some drilling required. Airbag disable switch is re-installed in front conset. Stereo not included. If any suspension or body lift modification has been done to the vehicle which affected the height of the shift lever the lever will have to be modified by lengthening it, and/or bending it so it will clear the front of the console.

Comments: Well its not really for a TJ, but that was the only category on the pull down menu.

This is the ONLY good thing the previous owner ever did for my YJ. The guy could not even find the key, so getting one made was a major PITA. Put my stereo in it, and it can fit just about anything inside. Only problem im having with it, is i got wider seats that somewhat interfere with it opening.

Comments: Actually ther CJ Security Console is what I have. LOVE this company and its product line. My only complaint is that you can't order keyed alike items. You have to spend $10 per lock and two keys. So I have to spend an additional $50 on locks. Selling Tuffy locks on Ebay isn't so easy.

Comments: Installed the security console w/o stereo. Really like it. I rate it a "must have" if you run a soft top. Only complaint was my gear indicator (automatic) did not fit real well on the steel console.

TUFFY TJ Stereo Security Console
Price: $230.00
Pros: good solid construction, good value for the money
Cons: poor finishing process, not designed for topless jeeps
Recommended? Yes

Comments: I bought the Tuffy Deluxe console for my 83 CJ7. Although I enjoy my console, there are two major issues I have with it.

First, I cut the hell out my my hands while installing the console; the finishing job was horrible. I found everything from burred to razor sharp edges on the console (mostly with the aluminum parts). I had to spend about an hour or so deburring the console. I would like to see Tuffy imporove it's finishing process so that others may not have to do this.

Second, I do not believe this console to be designed/fabricated with topless jeeps in mind. I don't know about the YJ and TJ owners, but many CJ owners run without tops. Isn't that why a jeep has drain holes? I rarely run my jeep with a top; when I do, it's only during monsoon season and two months during the winter (Arizona living is great). There are many holes, and junctions points (specifically to the front of the console) that are not water proof and perhaps only slightly water resistant... if that. A quick weld, prior to deburring as suggested above, would fix this issue.

A suggestion from the stereo section of the console (in case a Tuffy Rep reads this): The main compartment hatch has a really nice feature in the back. It overhangs the maincompartment to help keep water out. The thought put into the design and construction of this console is the reason I bought it, over the competitions. So, why not do the same thing with the stereo section of the console? Seriously, wouldn't it be a bit more important to protect your electronics than anything else in the conosole? It's just a thought.

TUFFY TJ Stereo Security Console
Pros: Secure storage for 1911, winch cable/switch, cell phone, etc. Impossible to "pop" open. Much sturdier than stock plastic console.
Cons: Instructions not quite correct or somewhat confusing. No more cup holders!
Recommended? Yes

Comments: I bought this console replacement to fit in my 2005 Rubi LJ so I would have a secure location to mount a CB radio. Unfortuately, the radio location was too small for the CB. So, I cut the cover in half, lengthwise, welded in another inch of steel and also extended the top another inch or so to the front. Cleaned up and painted, it looks factory fresh. I warmed up the stock shifter and bent it forward a little to clear the new cover in 4th and 6th gears. Ran all the cables under the console and shift cover to the firewall. Nothing shows. This console bolted into the stock rear console holes in the LJ. Did not have to drill any holes in the body. Did have to fab a new shifter boot hold-down frame (used aluminum bar stock, painted black, and brass nuts & bolts - looks good). The stock bass speaker fits fine. The rear cup holders don't really fit that well with the back seat folded up, so I took them out.
