Re: seat belts?

Looking at berencams truck after his wreck, if he had the harness, he might have gone completely unharmed! - I like the comfort of the lap belt only but REALLY think I'll be going to at least a 3 point...
As for adding a shoulder belt, anyone have one added to an existing set of laps or know anyone(company) that can do it?

Re: seat belts?

Got this pair off ebay. It was like another $15 for the center belt.

I didn't get this color, couldn't find a cheap charcoal set listing.

You have to drill a new hole in the bottom of the cab and put some metal under it to reinforce it. I used 2 giant thick washers about 3" in diameter.

You'll also need some steel seat belt extenders for the buckles, they're not quite long enough to reach through the bench seat.

Re: seat belts?

I got these out of a mid 80's Suburban. All I had to do was bend the brackets a little(so the door doesn't hit the plastic box) and they bolted right in.

Re: seat belts?

I just installed a set of three point seat belts in my 67 from
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com. Type seat belts 67 chevy c20(use your yr/model) in the site search engine. $104 for a set of two. All bolts that came with the kit fit the stock mounts, all I had to do was make an "L" bracket from angle iron. It was easy, they work great, and is by far the best price I have found for seat belts...They are pretty generic, I will also use them for my 41....
