I know I'll catch some wrath here, but I'm looking to swap the center console on my 2020 2500HD AT4 Sierra for a jump seat.  We just had our forth child and we can no longer take the truck anywhere as a family.  I've got a couple questions that I think members will likely be able to answer.

  1. Will this swap leave anything unfinished on the underside of the dash below the controls?
  2. Will there be carpet under the current storage area of the console?
  3. I've been able to locate a number of 1500 jump seats, but can't find any 2500HD.  Will a 1500 work in a 2500?  My seats are black leather now.

 

Thank you

I can't answer any of your questions but I might be able to help. I have a 2020 2500HD Custom. My jump seat had no storage, I had to have storage so I went looking for a jump seat with storage. I ended up installing one with top and bottom storage out of a 2016 Tahoe. It did not bolt in. I had to make brackets out of 1" flat stock. Easy process just took time. I don't have the wiring for all of the charger ports in the Tahoe console but I have them on the dash. To get a direct fit for a 2020 I think you might have to buy one for a 2020. Watch EBay, these Municipalities buy new vehicles and rip the consoles and jump seats out to install their equipment.

I have the same EXACT “issue” (four kids, want six seats) and the same questions. I’m in the market for a 2020 2500HD and want all the nice tech of the LTZ but I need the jump seat.

 

I’ve seen videos of people swapping out the jump seat with console in 1500s, but nothing in 2500s. I did, however, measure the rear base of a 2500 and 1500 console and they are exactly the same. I believe they are interchangeable. But I have not fully confirmed that as fact yet. Hoping folks on here can help with that ?

Do you have any pics?  I’m doing this exact conversion in my 2500.  Did you weld the flat stock to existing?  Thanks

I had to have my son sit in the middle of a 2020 1500 single cab.  With his carseat his feet were touching every dash control.  
 

I cant imagine doing that full time, its hard enough getting three carseats in the back as it is

i believe the  LTZ does come in bench seat.....its either a 1500 or 2500 but i have seen them in bench seats with leather

 

EDIT: yes LTZ is available in 6 seats

I got mine done today.  Have a buddy that’s a welder.  We raised the console a little for comfort.  I’m 6’5” and I’ve always disliked how low the armrest is.  Turned out well, and everything is getting wrapped in red Katzkin next week.

So I habe a 2020 2500 HD Custom. I have a jump seat but no storage compartments. Any ideas where I can find a replacement that has the top and bottom storage compartments along with the AC vents and USB in the back?

 

Thanks.

I just bought a 2020 3500 HD and I'm looking to trade my jump seat for a center console if anybody is interested. I will pay for shipping. The seat is dark gray fabric and there are 0 cosmetic blemishes given that it is brand new. Also, it has storage on top and under the seat.

I would purchase this off you. I’m looking to upgrade to a jump seat with storage. Let me know, thanks!

Yes. This pic below is from a buddy that has a 2020 3500hd denali. Converted to the 6th seat all leather. Has storage top and bottom including all the accessories behind it. The woofer was mounted under the rear seats. Woofer can be abandoned as well with no issues to sound system. The seat is from a 2019/2020 which is the new style so it was just a simple bolts out and back in. No welding no issues. Simple swap. 

 

I have a 2021 3500hd denali that I am looking to do the same to. If someone wants to swap me for their jumper seat that has storage top and bottom including the 2 usb and air vents in the back let me know. I have the jet black leather interior.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
