My "new" 61 Apache 10

Been awhile since I've posted. I recently bought a 61 Apache and have a question about seat belt length and location.
I plan on installing the chrome lift latch lap belts but I'm unsure of what size to order.

Also, is there a spot in the floor that works better than others? I know my 65 ss had dimples in the rear floor pan to locate where to drill.

Thanks!

That is a rare color combination. Sorry, but I can't help you with the seat belt lengths but I do recommend you use some large, flat washers on the bottom of the cab where the bolts come through for a wider distribution of stress. Last thing you want is to hit something and have the bolts pull through the floorboard!

Tractor Supply should have something or you can make something up with a piece of 1/4" metal.

Nice truck!

Tom

Thanks Tom. I'm thinking the 60" length will work. I hear ya on the washers! Cool to hear it's a rare color combination, I really like the look. I sold my 72 gmc to buy this one, I really like the 67-72 but I love the 60-61's!
