Best 3 point seat belts. Suggestions

[wbc409]

if you are dead set on using those belts, I am not sure that the angle iron you are using has enough surface area for the bolts and washers you are using to hold the retractors in place. I would also try to tie that mount into the factory mount by welding another piece of angle or square tubing to the angle iron. If your mount is only held in with the one bolt you could have the angle iron spin under load no matter how tight you have it.
At a minimum I would put a second bolt through the angle iron to prevent it from spinning forward in the event of an accident.

Thanks, WBC. The angle iron does have 2 bolts, both seat mount bolts are run through the the angle iron. The flange on the iron is wide enough hat the washers don't overhang. I do like the idea of taking another piece and attaching to the factory belt mount hole, but will need to figure out how. Thanks for that suggestion.
