Center seat belts?
Do center seat belts exist for your trucks? I thought they all had them and noticed mine aren't there.

Re: Center seat belts?
They were optional. Not many trucks have them that i have seen.

Re: Center seat belts?
That's interesting that they were optional. I've never noticed that option being listed on a spid. FWIW my truck has the center belt. Stock bench truck.

Re: Center seat belts?
They were standard on Cheyenne,Sierra,Cheyenne Super,and Sierra Grande.I can`t recall about Custom Deluxe but I think so.Just not on the base trucks.

Re: Center seat belts?
They used the same anchor points as the driver/pass belts i believe.

Re: Center seat belts?
My '71 Custom 10 had a full set of belts. When I upgraded I put in three point belts for the driver and passenger sides, but went without a center belt.

Re: Center seat belts?
My Cheyenne didn't have and I needed them in a hurry, So the only color I found was black. Used the other bolts from the other belts and everything is fine.

Re: Center seat belts?
Many trucks had them removed.The higher trim trucks came standard with center belts,they were an option,as well as available as GM accessories.I`ve had a many of high level trucks in original unmolested form.That`s what I`ve always looked for.I also have the brochures that site the features,just don`t feel like digging them out to prove what I know is fact.

Re: Center seat belts?
Fwiw my 70 cst my dad bought in 85 unmolested with low miles didn't have one. We put a center belt out of a 70 impala we had bought for the engine in it. Buckle is stainless with gm logo not exact match but looks better than a lot I've seen.
