'Burb Seat Belt Tension ?

Seems as if the driver's side and passenger's side seat belt retractors have lost some of the tautness or tension (??) on my '91 Burb. Is it possible to maybe tighten the wind-up spring or something to bring them back to the point they re-tract like they used to? Haven't had a chance to really take a look at them to see what needs to be done. Anyone had this same problem and what did you do to fix it. Thanks,

Yeah, the ones on my '86 are terrible like that; they pretty much don't even retract anymore. I look forward to seeing some responses, although not much traffic goes through this Suburban board :-(

In the past 30 years about 90% of Fords are still on the road, the other 10% made it home.
