Hello everyone,

I'm hoping to get some definitive answers here after striking out locally. I have a paid-off 2022 Ram 1500 that I love, but my family's needs have changed. With my kids getting into overlanding and mountain biking, our 5-seat configuration isn't cutting it, and we're constantly taking two vehicles.

I'm looking to swap the full center console for a jump seat to get the 6-passenger capacity. I'm trying to determine if this is a practical solution compared to trading in the truck for a Power Wagon with a factory bench seat.

A crucial point is that I will not be doing this work myself; I would need to find a professional shop to perform the conversion. I've already called local dealers, upholstery shops, and custom shops, but no one has been able to give me a straight answer.

So, my questions for the community are:

  • Is this swap physically possible on the 2022 models (not classic)? Does the jump seat simply bolt in where the console was?
  • What specific parts are needed besides the seat itself? I've heard mentions of a different dash bezel for the radio/climate controls and possibly different wiring.
  • Has anyone successfully had a shop perform this conversion? If so, what kind of shop should I be looking for?
Any advice, part numbers, or real-world experience you could share would be hugely appreciated. Thanks for your help!
