Shoulder Harness kit? 66C10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ChuckW · 06-28-2012, 12:43 AM

66 C10 with weld nuts installed for shoulder harness'. I've been searching for a retractable lap belt/shoulder harness installation. Saw one at a Santa Maria, CA. custom show a few weeks back so I know it exists. My bad in that I did not write down any info. Has anyone installed or located any kits? Would be greatfull for any info! And Thank you!

I installed a couple from Julianos. The kit had everything I needed.

I've seen a 4point race harness, but other than that only lap belts.

Thanks guys.... T2vigil, Did your truck have OM seat belts? If so, where you able to use the original OM attach points with Julianos? I chatted with Cust Ser.@ Julianos and they could only give me info on 67 and later. I have OM lap belts and the weldnuts OM installed in the posts. Julianous looks like a nice easy install.....(If I can use OM mount points)...
True?

There was a thread on adding shoulder type seatbelts to our trucks, most kits come with a bracket that has a tapped hole to take the bolt to hold the shoulder harness in place, no welding needed, you just need long arms!

If I find the thread, I will post it up for you.

actually, have a look at this one, the bracket kit is 10.95, I believe it is easy to reach up and hold the bracket in place on the passenger side, a little tricky on the driver side due to the gas tank. a friend with long skinny arms, or a coat hanger and some clever bending might also do the trick

Chuck, I have a 64 and it did not have any existing holes. I utilized the measurements in an old post for the shoulder strap location. I just found a spot on the floor that would work. Passenger side was the easyist, long arms work or in my case I used long paint stick. Once you get the bolt started in the bracked all is good.

Thanks all! Good info! My 66 has all the OM mount points including the shoulder harness post mount. Based on all of your pics I should be able to utilize them....
