Seatbelt mounting location
 
Does anybody happen to have a picture of the spot where you bolt the seatbelt to the floor by the pillar. For whatever reason my 68 does not have them, or I am just not seeing them. I found the two in the middle but not the ones by the pillars. I bought a set of the Morris three point seatbelts and I would like to make my mount as close to the stock location as possible. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.
Thanks jeff

Thank you for the response. This thread does not have a clear picture of the threaded hole. But I am confused by the post, when i spoke to the owner of Morris Manufacturing he swore that all of the trucks have this "nut" in the floor. Is this not the case?

I'm not aware if 1968 didn't have the hole. Here is a picture of my original floor on my 1971. The bolt hole in the picture is the driver side. It's about 6 1/2 inches forward of the back of the cab and about 3 inches from the the edge of the floor where it turns down to the cab corner pocket.

Actually that is perfect. I can look from the bottom incase something is covering the inside
But now I regret posting my picture as your floor and underside are clean enough to eat off of LOL.

Thanks for all the help, because of the pics I was able to determine that someone has done some not so great metal work and where to drill my new holes.
I greatly appreciated everyone

I recently installed Morris Design three point belts in my 71. The hardest job was removing the original bolts from the two point belts. I must have used about a gallon of Kroil oil but I didn’t break off one. You will enjoy the belts..:metal:
