3-point Seatbelt options.

[kholding]

I did a search and found a few members using the WH seat belts but it sounds like my bungs in my cage for the shoulder mounts are going to be too low and cause the seat belt to be really slack. I have looked at some of the Heep style seat belts as well but not sure what other options are out there that are working well for others? Here is one that I am looking at now, but I'm not sure if it will work for me because I need to be able to bolt all the way through the roll cage for the shoulder mount. Thanks in advance.

Ken it looks like those will work just fine. You can use your own bolt and bolt through your roll cage. I use the Wild Horses set up and it works well too.

All 3 points available from our vendors are not the same. I initially got what WH sells, but had to return them because the shoulder/roll cage mount has a really long ~9" hard plastic drop below the shoulder pivot loop. Others don't have this so I had to return the WH model and order from BC. BC's shoulder pivot loop is immediately connected to the shoulder point so it's mounted much higher than the WH model. This was essential for me as the barrel in my roll cage was already there and I didn't want to drill another hole higher.

You can see the difference in these two pics:

Nothing wrong with what WH sells. It just didn't work for my application.

Thanks techlaf. That was the issue I figured I was going to have with the WH model as well due to my cage bung being a little low.

I used the Humvee seat belts you find on Ebay for under $30. They work great.

I saw the thread about those a few weeks back. Do you have any pictures of them installed?

X2 they worked out great.

I have to take some pictures and post them.

Thanks larryejoh. I would like to see how they came out installed.

I have the WH 3 point and it works, but the drop bracket is right at the point I can easily hit my head on it. I mounted mine a little to high so I am constantly putting it under my collar. Completely my fault for eyeballing it by myself and not getting someone to mark it.

Don't want to drill another hole in the cage, so I will wait until I get a new one before moving anything.

Here are some pics of the Ebay seat belts installed.
I drilled the hole for the upper mount at 30" up from the base of my cage, it seems to be a pretty good height.

Thanks cs_88. That looks really clean.

The Humvee belts are a nice kit. The hardware is the same thread size as the stock Bronco hardware so the floor mounts just bolt right in. The only drilling I had to do was on the roll bar.
Now if I could just figure out why my pictures keep uploading sideways.

 

[kholding]

Its hard to tell from your pictures, did you drill a hole for the retractor as well?

 

[cs_88]

For the retractor I had to drill two holes, one for the mounting bolt and one for a locating tab that is on the back of the retractor that keeps it from swiveling.

I'd like to have just a bucket seat with the seat belts in the seat. Anyone find any of these seat that fit into our Bronco.

The f150 extended cabs have seat belts in the seats, but they may be too tall to mount in a Bronco.

@cs_88 Thanks for the photos. These are helpful.

I just received a package of 6 Humvee belts sold without hardware. They came out to $15 per belt with shipping. I have not mounted them yet. I have a stock bench seat which is pretty wide. I hope it doesnt interfere with the install. Time will tell.

I have the humvee belts too and they are great, especially for the price.
