seatbelt install

I did some searching but didn't find any seatbelt installation help. Anyone able to point me to some specific build threads where it has been covered?

'59 Apache.

Re: seatbelt install

I used Yukon third row seats that have the shoulder belts built into the seat so I did not have to deal with the issue of hacking up the cab for reinforcement. When I ran lap belts and a strap for a middle child seat I just used 3" x 3" "washers" made out of 1/4" plate on both side of the floor with grade 8 bolts mounted at the floor brace points.

Re: seatbelt install

I think I'm going to try out these guys. Great selection of webbing and buckles. 2 and 3 point belts.
3 point for $68.
Also they are supporters of people with autism which my daughter has.
