I have wanted to do the center console swap in my 3rd gen Cummins for a while now and it is finally getting done. I wanted to do it in a different was then most other people are doing this swap because I wanted to keep my lower seat storage in the truck and seeing how the new console doesn't have the lower seat storage I definitely needed to find a way to keep it. If your curious to how you can get a way with just swapping the top half of these center consoles this is the video for you.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who wanted to swap just the upper, this video is incredibly helpful, really streamlines the entire process!

Golden! Had my 2005 since new, only 45K miles. Gonna keep it to the grave, but want to give it a small facelift. This was the first "easy" upgrade I was gonna do. Finally gulped, paid the money, and got a new one off Ebay, and went out to do the 5 minute change out just like you. Two days later I found your video. Only thing I'm a little disappointed about is there seems to be a bunch of different variations on the console. Mine is the gray vinyl but with cheap looking fabric down the sides, yours looks like a nicer version. With what I paid for mine, I would have thought it was the premo line. Anyway, I appreciated the heck out of the video, and just based on it, I subbed to the channel.

@Cargill450 Жыл бұрын

Thank you for the sub!! I got lucky on this one, it's not a high level console but I do like how well it matches my interior and I agree there is no way I'm setting rid of this truck either.

Manual here and I hit the console with spirited shifting. Already had mine done. I undid the hinges however. Also to keep my under seat storage. Don’t forget to flip the rear seat latches to enable fold down rear seats.

@playinhookie Ай бұрын

So correct me if I'm wrong here but don't you now have 6 useless cup holders. How do you shift if you got a drink in any of the new top cup holders? Looks like they will all be in the way of your arm depending on the gear. Surprised nobody mentioned it.

@Cargill450 Ай бұрын

In all honesty, on the console the far right is good. Middle and left not so much and the down low cup holders you already know about them.

No sorry I should have shown that, there are 2 10mm nuts that hold those little brackets on so they come off of the new console really easy

Nice, I want to do this to mine. I always slam dunk coffee in the other cup holders. 😂 Some how I always forget I have a drink down there. Any lead on a 4th gen console, and how much? The wcfab 2nd gen swap and fuel wiped out my savings. I just ordered parts for a bi xenon morimoto 5.0 d2s retrofit, and I want to do this next check. Back to paycheck to paycheck 😅 Going to color match white housings.

Might be a dumb question but could you not just take out the top 2 bolts on each console to swap it over?

I tried that originally but that top part is different, I can’t remember exactly but I started out taking those 2 bolts out and there was more to it. Sorry I don’t remember what it was exactly but I know there was something more to it.

They are pretty easy, they have a nice machine screw in the back of them and you just put them together in a hole. It's been so long sense I have looked for them but I would think Amazon should have something, I got them from Over Kill Fab but they came chrome and I just had to sand them real good and paint them.
