Got my Fix at Ricks!
Just Bought new 3 point belts from Ricks.Nice belts, and if you like to eat they will fit.My brother-in -law is 6'3" and 335lbs.The belts fit him with a little room to spare.This is with a stock bench.Also got a new gauge bezel,very nice and fits well.

Good to know! I didn't realize anyone was selling 3-point belts. I was half-heartedly considering aftermarket for the truck. See, in Arooooostook County we have these stooopid mooooose that stand right in the middle of the damn road after dark. You don't know they're there until you're right on 'em. Many a car and truck (and life, unfortunately) has been lost to these ignorant beasts.

Are they a direct bolt in or did you have to drill some new holes on the floor? Any pics?

I made a braket out of a 2"x2" angle 3"long.I put the angle in a vice and heated it with my torch and opened the angle to about 70 degrees.Drilled a hole in the bottom leg and bolted it to the original belt hole.Drilled a hole in the upper leg for the belt mount.The upper mount bolts to the hole in the pillar.

I have always mounted them without making a mount, but now that I see how you guy's did it I have to agree it is alot nicer / cleaner way of doing it.
The colors I have are light gray, blue, black, brown (lighter than saddle), and a burgandy color. Shawn |
