Rear Seat belt install

[fpchief]

The TM's and the MWO do not have pics that help my simple little mind. Can someone please send me some real decent pics of the install? Particularly the wheelhouse reinforcement and the retractor mount but pics of the other mounting locations also...just rear is needed. I appreciate it.

text is great too!! 5047228079

Thank you. Also can you get a couple from underneath?

This is the driver's side reinforcement. Left is towards the bed, right is the wheel well (obviously). I was fortunate in that although my truck didn't have rear belts installed, the reinforcements were already there.

Somewhere (I'll keep looking) there's a paper template for how these are laid out, but at the moment I can't seem to find it.

Just found mine are already there also. Seem too far back.

Ok so today I installed the seatbelt kit.. Was actually fairly straight forward.. The MWO downloadable on here was a huge help... Impossible to do without this if you've not done it before...
Was quite tricky without the drill patterns so thought I'd just share a couple of tips which may help someone else...

when drilling the holes through the trans tunnel to install the front seatbelt sockets each side (see figure 21 in MWO) I found if you drill through the 3rd pop rivet down from the top you will find in this area on both sides the support plate that has to be fitted behind will be in just the right place.. You can then drill a couple of holes through the tunnel into the bracket and fit some rivets to secure...

When installing the cast belt mounts that locate on top of the rear fenders drill out the two holes in the top just behind the seat as per instruction and fit one bolt through here... The back of the bracket should then be exactly 3" away from the edge of the truck.. Drill all holes and then it's easy to install the strengthener supports under the rear arches by bolting them in first...

This is will make more sense when you come to do it... !!
