Maybe this is old news but, but nothing came up in search, I just saw Modern Day Muscle has some complete GM receivers and Hawks is now offering just the sleeves to replace your cracked ones. Couple different colors in both out there.
This is big news GM hasn't produced these in a looong time, and they were real pricey for a bit. OE ones, if you can find uncracked, still don't last long before they do at this age.

Nice! Bout time they started reproducing these. I pieced together a nice set of originals for my car, but obviously these parts are heavily prone to wear, and nearly every third gen I see needs a set.
I wonder which length they are? The site says they fit all 82-92s, but IIRC the originals were slightly different lengths for different years. I'm pretty sure mine are mismatched in terms of length.

Both offerings appear to be in the same mis matched lengths, which is awesome.

Are you in Atlanta? Do you I know you?

I am indeed in Atlanta, Sandy Springs area. You wouldn't know me by my Third Gen if you did...it's never ran since I've owned it lol. I've been to the F-Body Gathering with my Navy Blue '02 WS6 a few times, but not in years.
I have been going to that show for the last 15 years so I'm sure we have run into each other. Also from SS, but up in NE Marietta now.
What is your third gen lacking to get back on the road?

I Ordered a set in grey. And a can of the flame red sem Flex coat.. made just for changing the color of the Plastics.. They have 10 or 15 different colors.. Also available at O'Reilly's I believe.. I know they sell the plastic prep.. But I just went ahead and ordered a can from Hawks.. mine were in fantastic shape Intel I was installing the new tracks for the Recaro seats and was setting the rails up...on the seats.. And caught one of mine on the lip and split it.. Sucks....
Let us know how they are Artic. I'm probably just gonna get a set from Hawks unless they are horrible. Current belts work find but the plastics are non existent at this point.

I'm doing mine strictly for cosmetics.. All the belts are hundred percent.. But Passenger & driver both have 5 point harnesses with Cam lease... I'm so pissed off I split my other one.. Wasn't even sitting in the seat just yanking it back by hand..

the last shots before cracking one...
