Guys,
We sell and use M&R belts, always putting in four points, on occasion 5 points for required sanction tracks, but... I have no idea how you would mount them in a B&B. Sorry, wish I could help.

Richmond, Simpson, etc. are all good belts.

Does anyone have suggestions, steps, and/or photos to put 5 point harness in a B&B after the body and interior is installed?

thanks

blake - wishing I would've done it before.

I would recommend putting in the submarine strap if you are installing the shoulder harnesses. That belt keeps the buckle assembly from getting pulled up into your ribs when you cinch down the shoulder straps.

TTT....
I'm also trying to figure this one out....On T-3's website they are adding a piece of square tubing to the outside frame rail. The only problem with this is that I already have my body on. Any help would be appreciated

Wow, T-3 did a lot of work on their site since I last visited 3 weeks ago. I think the tube addition is a T-3 special touch, I would love to know what others have done to install the belts.

Anyone have any seatbelt harness pictures?

Did you need to use Bezels for the sholder straps?

Do you use a harness for everyday driving? Just curious!!!

jams · #15 (**permalink**) 08-07-2005, 11:03 AM

Any preference between V or individual harness?

RobV · #16 (**permalink**) 08-07-2005, 07:36 PM

I have installed a 5 point in my B&B and it went real well. I used Simpson's. I wanted the Y harness but they discontinued it. I bolted the submarine belt to the steel plate under the seat with the belt bracket sticking out enough to allow adjustment. The shoulder harnesses bolt through the first frame member behind the fiberglass behind the seats. The only problem is getting the angle right as it comes through the fiberglass and over the seats.

I chose not to use a V-harness because I wanted to finish the holes into the passenger compartment with bezels.

I can get pictures easily.

Jams, I do not have pictures. I know the newer frames have better mount locations to facilitate a better angle of the lap belt eye bolts (there is a welded pad inboard of the transmission tunnel tubes). Just go through the bulkhead and to an eyebolt mounted to the thick tube that makes the shelf behind the seats. BTW, you will probably need a right angle bit if you are doing it with the body on. I used bezels from finishline.

Thanks for your input guys.

Rob V. any pics would be appreciated.

Thanks

What is the best length 50" 55" 60"???

RobV · #20 (**permalink**) 08-08-2005, 05:46 PM

My belts are 55" Simpson's, part number: 29063. I also plan on bezels from Finish Line. I bought 4 bezels. See if these pictures help. I kind of described what I did in an earlier post.
