I am going to buy some new seatbelts for my truck this week, Who has the best deal? I want some aftermarket retractable shoulder harness type, that will work with factory buckets. Thanks

I bought sets from GMC Paul this past weekend.
They haven't arrived yet, but the quality of his stuff is pretty good.

Tom, I would recommend GMC Paul's if you are going to mail order. I've never ordered anything from him but a lot of people on this board have and I've heard only good reports. If you want to go the LMC Truck Parts route, I would be happy to go over on my lunch hour and check them out before you order. Their warehouse is only about 1.5 miles from where I work. Some of their stuff is OK, but some I would not haul home. That's my $.02 worth.

Hey Tom, I installed a set of these in my K5:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2447034977

They bolted in with no mods.
I used a 3" piece of 2x2x.125 < on driver's side and a 2" piece of 1x3x.125< on passenger’s side. A machine shop made the 1x3.
The angles bolted in using original stock bolts. The belts are temporarily attached to top, until I get roll bar, using 7/16" FT bolts in stock holes. The shoulder straps are a little long for this application and tend to slide off my shoulder. I think they will work great on the roll bar.
Sorry, no photos.
