I'm looking for detailed dimensions of the various inserts, for inside the box on the full length center console.  I have a mod/project in mind, but need to know the length/width of the bigger portions. 

 

EDIT:  Please also let me know how deep they are too.

Depth Measurement Request
Posted

You have me interested in hearing what the mod is now... also here are your measurements for one of two trays listed. I unfortunately don't own the other one. Would have been more accurate and in MM if my digital caliper wasn't at the Toyota dealership in my toolbox...

 

Subbed to the thread. Would love to hear about the mod..

 

Cheers

Glad that you threw the depth measurement in there, forgot to ask for that one.  THX!!!

I have the Deeper, 2-pocket insert in my console. I will try to get you dimensions a little later when I have time to get out to the truck.

I want to say that Amazon has it at 7".

Going to use one of them to mount my CB and scanner inside the center console box.  Unless I find someone between now and then with a '14/'15 full length center console that they want to swap for the one in my '18.

Oh was your 14/15 center console for the removable cupholder, were you planning to mount the CB underneath it? Also thanks for @ mentioning me to fill me in. It sounds like a pretty sweet idea.

My 15 had the moveable cupholder and my CB and scanner was between the cupholder (in the forward most position) and the center box.  Now, I'm looking at mounting them inside the box.

Oh okay gotcha. TinkeringFox had a video on youtube on how to turn the gen2 console with non movable cupholder into one that moves. I personally want a 14/15 upper so I can just move the cupholders away. That will eventually be where I keep my handgun.

I was looking for either a full console, from a 14/15, or the upper half of the front.  I would like to keep the cupholder, so I'm resorting to put them in the box.  I'm also looking for an inexpensive way to keep them cool, maybe a couple/few fans, and/or maybe ducting some AC to them, we'll see.

That wouldnt be a bad idea using the AC ducting but it would have significantly adverse effects come winter when your heater goes full blast on 90... so youd have to account for that. I'd vote for PC fans. They can be had for 5-12 bucks, and you can simply splice them into a wire powering your radios. I think youd be able to measure the temperatures to find out if a pc fan would do the job

So I had ordered the insert (pictured above), received it, built my workbench, and started to do the CB/Scanner mount in the center console like I wanted to.  BUT, I laid both radios with the insert, and outer most measurement of the insert is the same as both radios.  🤬  Time for a new plan or finding a way to alter this plan to work.

Can you share a link for where you got that particular tray?

Off the top of my head, don't remember.  I'm thinking Amazon, but let me confirm that when I get home from work.

    • While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.
    • Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage. 
    • This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.  
    • I was unaware of that, thanks for updating me.
    • Yes.  The 2.7 Turbomax has Active Fuel Management.  It is NOT the same as the V8s.  Totally different system.     Here is an article from GM when the 2.7 came out explaining the cylinder deactivation and the valve lift system.  Starts at the section called "SCS Valvetrain":   New Turbocharged 2.7L 4-Cylinder Engine Powers Full-Size Trucks – TechLink         This is an internet myth going around.  It was alleged that some 5.3s had this mystical 8th digit of the VIN as an "E" which somehow meant it had a new one year only 5.3 that didn't have DFM.  The writer of said article and the person that made the claim conveniently can't count because they posted the VIN.  The 8th digit was a "D" which meant its still the 5.3 with DFM.  The 9th digit of the VIN was an "E" and the 9th digit isn't the engine code.  At all.
