You could make it a little more comfortable/useful by inserting a "Z" in the middle, so the main part of the lever stays where it is, but it puts the end of the lever out an inch or two so you can get the knob on.

Can someone take a digital caliper and take a measurement of the shaft that the knob slides onto? I make custom shift knobs for cars and trucks and I am trying to find the measurement of the 4x4 shifting lever so I can find an adapter that will work for a customer of mine.

What do you do with the knob on the dash?  My truck is an LT without the console.  I think it'd be cool if I could put in a floor shifter.

Doesn't work that way.. If you have the knob on the dash, you can't convert to the shift on the floor.. LS & WT trucks have manual shift on the floor, LT and up have the electronic knob on the dash...

Hey there, Im looking to do this same thing, but was curious how hard it would be to do the full swap so its electric 4wd shift nob? 

Do you have more pictures of the full center console tying into the dash?

...just fyi, this is a 5 year old thread and the person posting the pics w the console/4wd shifter hasn't logged onto the site since shortly after then.  You aren't going to get a response from that user.

 

And it appears to be the stock gm console being installed, so it "ties into the dash" in the stock way.

Absolutely love how that turned out. I’m about to put 1 of these in my regular cab shortie. Did you do anything special to cover that hole on the side of the hump? I hope I can get my cut hole as perfect as yours. Thank you for the inspiration on this.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By marpel · Posted

      Although there is a "recommended" weight by those who sell trailers, my experience has been that they are way too aggressive in their information, for me at least. My '22 with 6.6 Gas, has a payload of about 3400 lbs and depending on your specs (I don't have 4WD so it has a bit higher Payload than others) yours will likely be different. Payload is one of the most important numbers for towing. Although you "could" tow the max trailer weight for your truck, I, personally, would not go close to that number. Having said that, a lot depends on how/where you will be towing. I live in the LMD of BC and often tow to Denver, Co, along interstates (flat and mountains) and I find I need to keep it in 5th (6spd) for the trip and travel at around 65mph. This is for a trailer dry weight of just under 3500lbs. If you are only doing local, short trips, it would not be that big an issue if you had a heavier unit. You will be surprised how much stuff you load the trailer with, so I would only recognize the trailers "full" GVWR weight rating, then decide on the appropriate trailer from that number. If you are worrying about how much stuff you should be putting in a trailer, you might have too large a rig from the get-go. Once again, depending on what terrain/distance in which you will be pulling. Marv

      Disconnecting Battery

      By marpel · Posted

      davester, Thanks for the response, how ever, I think I am now a bit more confused than I was before I posted - - After I posted, I actually found a YT video of a guy who replaced his Module (above tire) and he only disconnected the ground cable of the battery, but you describe rubbing the two cables together after disconnecting. I presume that is to do as you describe and eliminate any residual energy? - When I picked up the Module (between my posting and reading your response) from the dealer, I specifically asked about any re-programming and he stated it was not necessary as it was simply plug and play. Don't know how knowledgeable he is, though. - The video I watched also showed the Module plug to be difficult to "unlock" and remove, but there was no mention of silicone, although the video did show a bunch of dust/dirt in and around the plug (old truck) during removal. Are you talking about silicone that was applied by the factory, or silicone that you applied prior to plugging in? Thanks again, Marv
