I just bought a 2006 Silverado and it has the 40/20/40 seats in it right now. I would like to take out the jump seat and replace it with a console. I've read some other posts about doing the swap and it looks rather easy. My question is concerning the HVAC ducts in the console. When i remove the dash trim plate and connect the console, is the connection for the ductwork there or will it be non-functional?

Short Answer: Non Functional

 

Long Answer: Functional with addtional parts;

 

I am going to assume that you have the console in hand already with the two air vents that come out of the back. If you have the RPO code CJ2, then you will need the just the lower half of the HVAC but if you have the CJ3, you will have to order the entire "module kit".

 

"CJ2" (Part#89018300) = $65.00 plus shipping.

"CJ3" (Part#89023357) = $200.00 plus shipping.

 

this information was given to me by Rich (MS3DALE) when I did my console swap. you will have to check your original glovebox sticker to determine if you have the "CJ2" or the "CJ3" option....

I have CJ3, so it looks like my daughter is not getting any heat/air back there, i don't see it being worth $200.

 

Thanks for the information.

Actually GM Parts direct lists it for $119, so she may get some heat back there yet. I may not add it right away but i may at a later time.

yep, gmpartsdirect is usually cheaper on the part itself but sometimes their shipping can be on the high end side of it. I got it from gmpartsdirect for 127.01 but the shipping was 60 bucks when it actually shipped :dunno:

I wish to clarify this response concerning the CJ2 or the CJ3 option. I am looking at a console with the duct work in the rear with the rear audio controls. I have the cj3 option.

 

When you say the complete module I assume you mean lower and upper half for my configuration (CJ3). Does #89023357 include everything needed for the conversion? From looking on GMpartsdirect it looks like that is just half an assembly.

 

Thanks

according to Rich (MS3DALE), Part number# 89023357 is a kit.

 

Here was what he told me:

 

"Hey Mike,

What RPO code HVAC system do you have? CJ2 or CJ3?

I priced the lower case half for "CJ2" (Part#89018300) BUT...If you have "CJ3" you have to buy both halves in a "module kit" (Part#89023357) and it lists for $200.98!

Rich"

 

Sorry for the delayed response.

I'm looking for a jumpseat to replace my current center seat (I have a work truck and it doesn't fold down). Please let me know if you're interested in selling it.

Thanks

 

Hey Pete, to clarify for those out there: Are you looking for the Charocoal or Tan jumpseat?

Honestly I'd do either. Charcoal preferred but I'd settle for a tan one

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
