So I decided to peek inside the the top of the jumper seat today and I snapped some pictures for you guys. Here is my piece of the puzzle.   It looks like the lower portion of the arm rest h

I purchased the upper part of the armrest from the dealer for $490 Cdn$.  The bottom part apparently is multiple part and was super expensive (i think about $1000).   Anyways, it was a bit of wor

I will give a summary of what I did.  Not being mechanical at all, it wasn't easy but very doable.    The first step was to take the plastic side panels off the console.  Right off the bat,

For those who swapped out the center consoles.  The clips from gm. They are priced at 2.25. Is that for the pack of 5 or each?  Do I need to add 5 or is it a pack of 5?  

 

Also. When changing the console. Does the driver and passenger seat need to be removed or just loosen?

You just need to loosen all four bolts on the drivers seat you don’t need to remove it just move it a little to the side

I just found this online. I paid 290 for mine with a hook up at a bodyshop. This is a better deal for those who don't want today shipping.

The price for the clips is each and you need 5 of them.
All 4 of the bolts holding down the driver seat need too be removed so that the entire seat can be moved forward and back as required to get to the hardware of the center console and seatbelt attachment. There is a wire attached to the seat for something that prevents you from being able to completely removed the seat. No easy plug to just simply unplug and be able to remove.
The passenger seat can just be slid all the way back and then reclined to gain access to the side of the console.

Well I found the center storage same price as the one from gm but with free shipping. 

 

So I was was just going to order the clips from gm but they want 17.50 for shipping LOL.  Does anyone have a picture of the clips so I can see if local part stores have anything like them

I bought everything from my dealer hassle free. Might have paid a little more but there were no hidden shipping fees that I got slapped accross the face with at checkout.

Here is what I was quoted from my dealer.

Only tax was added to the prices.

 

Console

8464-7286 $438 +tax

 

Replacement clips

1154-9266. $3.46 each +tax

5 required

 

Rear wheel well liners

(Hardware kit included)

8426-3801. $150 +tax

I just purchase the 2019 Trail Boss ,custom, and love it except I can not understand  why they would not have ANY storage in the center console that folds into a jumpseat.!!!!! Anyone have any part numbers for a replacement? I want a center console with some storage......ugh.

Also, if anyone has added anything to the accessories I would be interested, i.e. extra USB, security system, DECK, tool box drawers for the bed.  Thanks!!

I just bought a 2019 Trail Boss last week and was dumbfounded that the armrest console doesn't open up for storage.  It reminds me of when you order cable or satellite tv. You want to get  a certain channel, so you have to order the next higher package with a lot of channels you don't want or need.  If I wanted an LT I'd have ordered it.  It's ridiculous that the center console of a custom level truck doesn't have storage.  I think the last truck that I had without center console storage must've been in the 80's.  Bad call G.M. / Chevy.

custom = cheap = lowest model available. it doesn't mean it was a custom built truck

 

I agree it is a piss poor decision to remove it, but that's why the truck was so cheap.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
