3-point seatbelts - anybody used seatbelts plus?

I like that they are made to fit around the tank, and look original, and I guess I'd rather not skimp on something that needs to save my life.

Has anybody tried these?

Subscribed. Decent price and they have the GM emblems. I wish they had put better pictures on line.

I have always thought about welding a nut to the spot where its supposed to go and add 3-point seat belts. I'll follow this thread as well.

Re: 3-point seatbelts - anybody used seatbelts plus?

I've always endorsed using Wesco Performance (used them for a few times now, great prices) but dang, those look really cool with the GM buckles!

Yes, you'll love the 3 point. My truck has had 3 point for 19 years and I installed a set in my 65 Mustang almost immediately after I bought it a few years ago.

Even if you don't believe they help in an accident (hard to believe there's still those out there...) they definitely help when you get in trouble and keep your ass where it's supposed to be and not sliding all over the seat.

You don't need to go all out and buy a special kit just for these trucks. My dad put Jeep JK seat belts in, and they work perfect, he couldn't be happier.

JK is the numeration for the 2006 and up Jeep wranglers. I guess those will fit our trucks?

A tj seat belt is similar, and don't see why they won't work also

Thumbs up Re: 3-point seatbelts - anybody used seatbelts plus?

I guess I'm the only one who likes GM seat belts. I used the ones out of the 99 Tahoe I got the seats out of. They mount and work fine.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
