I’m looking to do a similar swap. I have a black cloth jump seat with top and bottom storage that came in my 2020 HD LT. looking to swap to a full center console.

Has anyone been able to remove a center console for a jump seat and relocate the buttons to keep the rear heated seats? 
 

or remove the wireless charging from the console and have it installed into the top of the jump seat?

I want to order a new 2021 Silverado 2500HD. The highest options all require the bucket seats, I think some electronics are installed in the console.  My previous trucks were all at the highest level trim that would keep the front split "bench" seats.  It is annoying though - GM has the dash swoop down a bit in the center, so you still don't get the open space, or the knee room, one would like. Better of course than the console for many purposes.  So this time I am going to order with the buckets in order to get the features I want - but I am hoping a custom shop will be able to do a swap for me. If they could also chop the dash back in the center that would be a plus.

I have. 2020 AT4 I’m needing to convert. Does anyone have a jump seat they want to trade? Also my truck has the wireless charger and Bose speakers, am I going to have issues taking out the console?

I keep the usb outlets covered with tape when not in use; as you can see it gets a little dusty sometimes. The heated seat buttons have plenty of room, I put the key fob antenna next to it, the left side outlet fits tight, and the right side piece is fairly large so would only fit tilted. Jump seat came out of a 2016.

I just bought a 2021 LTZ 3500 with center console. I’m wanting to swap out for a middle seat. Let’s get in contact if you are still looking for a console.

I’ve got a 2021 LT middle seat in charcoal cloth that I’m looking to swap for a console. Let me know.

When the mid console is removed...

 

1.. is there a hole in the carpet underneath the console?

Like with the Fords?

 

2.. do you need to re-do certain parts of the lower dash (like with the Ford superduty)? With ford you have to install the cupholders to fill up the hole.

 

3.. is there any wiring under the console that needs to be rerouted?

 

Or...is it as easy as unbolting the console, take it out and mount the jump seat?

 

I'm not technically inclined, but remove a console and bolt in a jumpseat I can do.

 

If it's fairly easy, I'll be buying a High Country or LTZ fairly soon.

 

 

I hope someone has a step by step instruction and hopefully with some pictures...

 

Thanks

I am looking for a new truck and would prefer an LTZ, but there is not one single truck I can find that doesn't have the center console. Heck, I can't even find an LT model that is even remotely close to my home. For any folks that have done this to the 2021-2022 models, please give us a detailed guide. I would like to order a truck without the console, but I am being told I wouldn't get it till spring. My thought as long as the modification isn't too in depth, I may just do the center console to jump seat conversion.

      This is interesting. My quote tagged here is different from my original quote. After I’m driving them longer. That isn’t me. I don’t talk that way. I definitely wouldn’t express myself that way. Interesting.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      By UrbanRage · Posted

      I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

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

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.
