Want to install the Mini Floor Console from the 13-18 trucks

[DevilDodge]

It was standard on Tradesman. Even the autos. Just like the RamBins were in the back floor.

This is one of my biggest disappointments in the 2019+ HeftyDuty

Sure it is an easy fix...but aggravating all the same.

Even the Powerwagon doesnt get it...annoying.

But now the Powerwagon gets the console and buckets and the knob 4x4 selector. Annoying. But many people want it. So RAM obliged and gave it

Just seems silly to omit them...when for 9 years they were standard and the cabs did not change

As others have mentioned. If nobody can sit there, give us some sort of storage/divider area down there.

Or a couple of 5/16[10mm] studs and let us easily mount custom brackets/consoles!!

Isn't the 75th anniversary P/W the only one who gets the center console? The rest still get the jump seat.

Yes.

The regular Powerwagon no longer gets the floor console this thread is about.

But now they gave the powerwagon the center console and buckets with the 75th Ann. Edition.

Did they ever make a floor console for the electronic shift 4x4? I like this idea even if i have to use a piece of something to plug the shifter hole

Not to my knowledge

But I did just notice one in a Laramie. Can not locate a good pic though

You can see it here. But it is a bit different

 

[DevilDodge]

You can get a block off cover. It just looked different in the tan.

So yes. You could order the parts listed here and then also get the block off plate.

Cool.

Thanks for the info, im thinking about maybe making a block off plate to house 2 - 2-1/8” gauges in the 4x4 shifter void

The round spot in the bottom center used to house a removable ash tray with cover. I used to put extra loose change and fuses in mine.

okay that was a bit of a chore. surprised how much meat I had to trim.

 

[Chrisminx]

Not to derail, but I was looking at the jump seat swap in the interior section and noticed the upper trims with bench seats get a storage compartment where the tradesman gets a hole. I had no idea I needed this until I saw it.

Looks good! I would like to add this to my 2020, I really liked it in my 2017. How did you fasten it to the floor? Do any of the screws line up or did you drill new ones?

 

[elephantrider]

the back two screws line up. I didn't use the last one. it fits tight enough not to need it.

Hmm interesting. I wonder if it would fit with a manual tcase or if the shifter is in the way

also now that I have the floor console it might be a headache having to move things out of the way to open the drawer

Thank you! Do you have a part number for the console?

 

[elephantrider]

you know I didn't get a pic of the part number. search floor shifter console on eBay and you'll see them. don't pay list for any of them. make a low ball offer first.
