Harness mounting.

Hey guys did a search and didn't really find anything. Where are u guys mounting your lap and submarine belts at? Doing a roll bar and harness to meet safety regulations this winter.

Re: Harness mounting.

I have a tubular framework welded to the cage that the seat is bolted to. I use a 6 point belt so the lap and crotch belts get attached to tabs welded to the framework.

Back when the seat was attached to the floor, the lap belts attached to the stock seat belt mounting bolts and the crotch belt was bolted through the floor.

Re: Harness mounting.

My lap belts are mounted to the factory seatbelt mounting points and my crotch belt bolts through a 6x6x1/8" plate and floor under the front center of seat.

Shoulder belts mount to seat crossbar on roll cage.

Re: Harness mounting.

Like the others my lap belts go to stock mount points. I did replace the factory star headed bolts with hardened hex headed bolts. crotch belt is under center of seat, thru floor with plates on top of and below floor sandwiching floor between plates. Shoulder belts attach to cage crossbar behind seat.
