I put them in my truck about a year and half ago, they work very good so far. My truck only had lap belts so I took them off and installed these.

Big Al, where did you buy your belts?

grs · 02-28-2010, 03:29 PM

OK big Al. The man wants to know where you bought the shoulder, lap belts. And so do I. So give it up.

He has the best prices for aftermarket lap/shoulder belts. They are the same ones all the vendors carry (brothers, lmc, etc) at a considerable difference in price.

hayhauler71: How did you mount the back of the harness? To the gas tank area or did you fab something?

Steal plates in floor and reinforced back of seat to prevent back seat from collapsing in a crash. The main reason was to keep my kids safe when we went for a ride.

**leddzepp** · 02-28-2010, 05:00 PM

Wow...mbgmike's price is even lower. Buy from him instead and support a board vendor. The link I posted above is a guy local to me and he is a crusty old coot anyways

When I built my 1970 back around 1998 I used S-10 factory belts in the Oem locations using the oem bolts. It has worked very well (not crash tested though!

. I have a early 90's full size chevy seat in it and they work nice.

Those look like some nice belts mbgmike! And they are made in usa! I may be calling you to order some as soon as summer hits.

My truck has the plug looking thing in the corner of the cab where the top of the shoulder belt would bolt to. How are you guys attaching the top of the shoulder belt?

pull the plug

Seriously, the cab is threaded there for shoulder belts.

MT71c-10 · 02-28-2010, 09:27 PM

I have been told that, but I just wanted to make sure!

This means I finally get to get rid of my white seat belts.

Thanks leddzepp.
