Floor mats for floor mounted 4x4 shifter

[Raymond S.]

What are you guys doing for floor liners w/ the trucks equipped with the floor mounted 4x4 shifter. Just purchased a 2012 F350 w/ the floor mounted shifter and WeatherTech says their liners won't fit. I used theirs on my 2011 and it just sits a little further left than it should. Not bad though.
Just wondering if there is something out there you guys are purchasing and trimming to make work.

I would like to be able to use a one piece as the truck is a 40/20/40 front.
Thanks for the help.

I'm in the same boat.
Looks like you could pull the shifter trim off, make a nice cut in the weathertech one piece and slide the mat right in.
Not sure I want to screw up $140 floor mat

Weather tech said the floor is a different configuration altogether. I don't mind cutting the floor mat as long as it fits everywhere else.

Ah, I didn't expect that.

I'll have to take a peak in my buddies truck

If you craw under the truck you will see the block off plate that they use to cover the hole where there would be a floor shifter. I use that plate to drill holes to run cables from inside to outside the truck. I am not a fan of drilling through the cab.

I'm betting it could be done. It would be nice to get a single piece and just trim it. Weather tech makes a single front piece don't they?

Here's the one I've been looking at,
I think I'm gonna visit a couple local shops to see if anyone has one in stock I could test fit

Have you looked at the OEM all weather mats? I don't know that they go over the hump, but they catch just about all the crud that falls off my boots. I take them out once a month and pressure wash them off.

I called Ford today and he couldn't tell me anything about the OEM all weather mats. Are they rubber or carpet?

The other kicker...My '12 has the raised dead pedal. Instead of a drop on the LH side by the edge there is a slightly raised false plastic platform to rest your left foot.

Rubber. Also know the ford drivers all weather mat is to small. It doesn't really cover under the pedals.

Mine goes all the way up under both pedals.

When I get my truck back I will post pictures. The dealer currently has it.

2013's don't. It's actually my biggest disappointment with the truck.

WeatherTech didn't make a one piece for the 2012 w/ the flat foot rest, so I had to go with the HuskyLiners which also didn't make a one piece, but they did make a center hump cover. It's not ideal but I made it work. If I knew this was going to be an issue I would have likely opted out of the manual 4x4 on the floor.
The shift lever trim comes up fairly easily. There are 4 "snaps" that need to be lifted straight up. Start w/ the passenger side, then the bottom is easy. Slide everything up the shaft and you'll see a 10mm head bolt facing the driver's side. Remove this bolt and everything comes off, simple. I first tried to trim the floormat, then install the plastic trim piece over the mat. The mat is too thick and wouldn't allow the trim piece to snap back in place. I ended up having to trim the mats to clear the plastic. I still recommend removing the shift lever and trim piece because it makes it easier to trim the mat. There will be a harsh outline on the carpet where the trim piece sits making it simple to cut the mat.
I still was able to get the flat, front portion of the driver's side mat to tuck under. All in all it's "OK" but not perfect. It will get the job done.
Hope this can be of some assistance to those of you w/ the shifter.
