What can I use for seatbelts? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HeavyD · 12-01-2004, 02:47 AM

Hi. I want seatbelts in my 70 GMC that have retractable shoulder harnesses. What will work well in my truck with the least amount of fabricating? I see Chevy Duty sells some that fit from 1948-87...do these fit our trucks well? Any help will be appreciated..thanks.

I recently installed retractable lap belts in my dads 70'. I did a search on ebay for retractable seat belts and found both 2 point and 3 point kits for under $50. I bought 4 angle brackets ($2 each) at Home depot to mount. Julianos sells an anchor plate kit ($15) that I would recommend for floor strength to mount the retractors. It's pretty easy and they look great.

I have S-10 belts in mine. They work fine.

S-10 belts work good. The passenger side hould be a direct bolt in but the driver's side needs the anchor point on the floor relocated.
