I know they say there's only two available in the nation and not yet releasing them or something like that but I'm scheduled to get one soon I'm also gona road kill the whole truck by dynamat so I'm just waiting for the console that way I can do everything at once

I am thinking about pulling the trigger on a 2014 GMC Sierra Crew Cab Short Box SLT 4WD. It has the SLT Crew Cab Value Package as the only added Option. Selling Price after rebates and incentives is $37,906 (MSRP $47,500). The only option I wish it had were the Bucket Seats with center console in front. Does anyone know if it is possible to switch out the center part of the front bench and put in the center console? This dealership has the lowest prices I have seen and for me to get an SLT on their lot with bucket seats, it will cost an extra $2,000. I would also not be able to get the Iridium color that I want. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance :)

Buy it the way you want from the beginning as it will save you time money and headache. You can always use the price you have been quoted as a negotiating tool for the one you want at another dealer.

I thought I'd like the jump seat on mine but, I'd prefer the console in retrospect. I'm not sure but, I think it was said somewhere that it's not an easy feat on the K2's to swap the console in.

my 2014 double ltz appears to have 4 bolts holding the console to the hump on the floor....it's kinda weird how if you were to remove the center, you'd wind up with two seats. like buckets. I really don't understand gm....they have the best truck on the market, but do stupid things . not being to order the options I wanted is whacked out. are the people running gm taking pills that we have never heard of? i ordered my truck with a bench, but don't see how my bench is really a bench at all. i am a big and tall guy and my left shoulder touches the pillar and my right elbow is kinda jammed against the console.....i think they should make a truck that can seat people not test dummies....has anyone heard of or seen a 6'5 and 350lb. test dummy? small people have small minds, i know because i measured one once.. i guess i'll have to get out my sawsall and cut out a place in this truck for me to sit. women and midgets should go back to the kitchen and circus respectively.

Here's a couple pics with my console removed. The dash has a bracket that protrudes where the front of the console bolts to. There were four floor bolts and two in the dash.

 

Basically you'll need to replace part of the dash.

 

Order one with buckets, they will deal, just give the negotiation time. They wear you down on purpose, remember to walk away and call them back in a week.

Had a body shop order a console for me last week. Should be in and put together by middle of next and install week of 4/7. What part of the dash will I need to replace? Did the USB and 110v connections match up with little trouble?

The dash is the same, when i looked it up at work it looked as though you need to buy the console housing the pockets the brackets, trim and the lid all separately. I also was looking at buying a truck with the fold down seat with the plan of just ordering the console. it was cheaper to just buy a truck with the full featured bucket seats as an option to get the console. I am in Canada so build lists may be different then U.S.

I ordered a full center console from GM and I hope it fits in my single cab

 

What's the part numbers? Dealer is saying they can't get it

    • If everything checks out at the MAF, then the MAF is BAD, new or not.   You don't need a signal generator to troubleshoot this. PCM needs ALL powers and ALL grounds able to light a halogen headlight bulb - if it can light the bulb bright, then the wiring is good enough to run the PCM.   Best thing you can do for yourself is spend some time here: scannerdanner.com - Check out all his YouTube videos on similar issues. If you decide to subscribe it's the best bang-for-buck ratio in the automotive world, hands-down. He's got TONS of free vids on YouTube, too.
    • Yes, I used my multimeter to probe all of the wires at the MAF, both with the sensor connected, sensor disconnected, key on engine off, key on engine running, etc etc etc. I probed all of the wires again at the PCM, at the connectors, etc. All voltages are what they should be according to the service manual/wiring diagrams. All grounds are good, less than 20 millivolts from the battery negative under load. Both at the connector of the MAF, at the PCM connector etc.      I know this throws a pretty big wrench into things, but this truck was acting up before the swap. I don't have very much information, if any on what was causing it, but if you cleared all of the dtcs it would do the same thing where it would crank, fire, then die. And it would do the same thing a dozen or so times, and eventually it would start and run, but the difference is that it would run and actually be drivable. Whereas now if you can drive it at all, it goes into reduced power mode almost immediately, and even then it's not running correctly. When you come to a stop at a light it stumbles down to for 500 RPM before catching itself and returning to the smooth idle. And if you go more than about 50% throttle then it immediately goes back to doing the misfire thing.    Like I said, I know that throws a wrench into things, and unfortunately I was not able to pull any data or anything like that before I did this work, so I don't have much to go on.    I'm trying to not fixate on one particular thing as the cause of the problem, but it seems like all avenues are pointing me towards the PCM. Like I said I have tested the wiring extensively (see above), and during cranking the sensor does produce seemingly legitimate values at least according to my multimeter, but as soon as the engine fires those values quickly descend into gibberish. I've tried it with multiple different known working sensors, I have done literally every test I can think of multiple times on the wiring (probing the signals, probing the pins with the sensors unplugged, probing the pins at the PCM, voltage drop, voltage drop under load, continuity, ohms, and double-checking everything against the wiring diagrams/ proper values in the service data.)    Another thing that pushes me towards a possible PCM failure is, I have noticed in troubleshooting a little bit taking a break and coming back, that when I leave the truck to sit for a while and cool off, it starts and runs smoothly when I first start it up. However once it warms up. It starts having problems. For example, when I went out to the truck this morning after it had been sitting overnight, I was actually able to drive it down the block. And then once I got on the throttle a Little bit after going about a thousand ft, it started misfiring again. I pulled it back into the driveway, shut it down, and started it back up. It idled smoothly. As soon as I touched the throttle it did the misfire thing again. From then on as soon as I started it it would misfire. I shut the truck off and went to go get a coffee and do a bit more research. When I came back out I started the truck up and it immediately went into the smooth idle. After a couple of minutes of playing around with it, it would not idle smoothly anymore. Let it sit a couple of hours, rinse and repeat. This makes me think with temperature change something is going wrong inside the PCM. I have the PCM out of the 2007 donor vehicle and I'm thinking of getting a one-day subscription to the ACDelco programming service to try and program that and see if it helps.   Like I said, I'm really trying to not fixate myself on one potential cause, but it seems everything is pointing me towards PCM failure. I would really like to try to confirm that, but unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope or a signal generator to do the GM service procedure where you feed 5 khz into the signal pin. 
    • Ahh, sorry about that - I got some bad info. Newdude is correct. That's what I get for working 13 hours straight ... on my "vacation", lol.   Should've checked the files I had instead of the internet.   Anyway ... this is GREAT news, since this would've been an absolute friggin nightmare to get working.   I don't think the lack of VVT is causing this - you've got another issue. Wiring, I'm betting.   I'm telling you right now, your computer isn't bad. If it worked before the swap, it's working now. You need to do some more (better) diagnostics and figure out exactly what you're missing. Did you test every wire directly at the MAF? Have 5V reference? Ground? If you're reading ZERO g/s, your Hz isn't much use - it's going to be the wrong value anyway. The MAF is not working, and you need to find out WHY.   I got this off the net, so VERIFY first: Pin A: Black (BLK) wire, Circuit 552, serves as the Sensor Return (Ground).  Pin B: Tan (TAN) wire, Circuit 472, carries the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) signal.  Pin C: Yellow (YEL) wire, Circuit 492, is the primary MAF Sensor Signal output to the PCM. Pin D: Pink (PNK) wire, Circuit 339 or 539, provides Ignition 1 Voltage (Power).  Pin E: Tan/Black wire, Circuit 552 or similar, often associated with the Intake Air Temperature ground or signal return.  Global-A list: https://postimg.cc/KKJnQC85    
    • Correct....the end user can't reach to Realtruck directly like they can if they purchase a Bak, Undercover, etc...  It has to go through a dealer.
