I see everyone is going from the jump seat to console. What if your removing the console and want the jump seat? What parts are needed other than the  jump seat assembly? Is the carpet the same under the console? Do all the harness plug in the same?

Welcome to the forum. What model and year is your truck?

I recently bought a center console but they cut the harness off. I currently have 2019 RST jump seat with usb and 12 volt outlet on the back side. I’m Looking to install the center console after figuring out which harness to buy. Any idea which harness I would need?

Im looking to change from seat to console. Wanting to know would a console from a 2019 and up work in my 2025????

Don't do it. It may physically fit in there but its the wrong console. You need one from a "refresh" model 22.5 and up. The console design is different . It has a different shape and the wiring is different. Do you have your shifter on the column?

Yes shifter is on the column. Im assuming id just have to find some way to fill that area with a tray or 3-d printing something to fit that space.

Not sure but I believe the HD trucks use the same console W/O the console shifter. (2500 and 3500). That may be the perfect console for you or the 3D thing would work. Have you checked the price for the full center console? Curios how much they are asking now.

Found a 2023 high country setup. I should have taken photos while I worked but I failed to do so. I got the console from a dude in Dallas for 500$ best price i saw..... he also had the seats (thinking about snagging them from him.) 

The connectors are NOT the same so I stole the wiring from the seat and used it to replace the console wiring. I dont have wireless charging or rear heated seats and of course lost the power to the interior plugs but the rear usb and USB c still work. The key module took a few start/stop cycles to recognize but it worked fine. All in all, really simple. I think there is 1 more trim piece I need to buy that goes right under the dash where the console meets the dash. You can barely see the space unless you get down to eye level.

$ 500.00 is a really good deal for that console. When I installed those consoles the trucks just seemed like a different truck. Enjoy!

Did you do this conversion? Looking into this for our truck and wandering if the wring and all worked.

You can simply take the harness out of the console and put it into the seat. I did that and it worked perfectly (except seat to console swap). I swapped a 2023 high country console into my 2025 Custom. The harness in the 2025 is NOT the same.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and maybe memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.

      loose lug nuts

      By newdude · Posted

      Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By Flynlow · Posted

      I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
