the stock toyota seat belt restraints are fine i am sure in a crash on the road but they plain suck off road.... always the shoulder strap ratcheting you tighter into your seat so most of us end up putting it behind the seat and using just the lap portion. I am interested in getting an aftermarket lap belt restraint similar to what people use in competitions...minus the harness that goes over the shoulder....just the lap part would suffice for me... i have subaru seats so i might have to get creative on the mounting unless they mount traditionally. I am looking for more info on mounting and what brands to look at that are quality and priced competively..basically a noobie question for me in this field......

thanks in advance

you need to explain that in engrish please...... i dont see how just using the stock seat belt lap belt portion is any different than adding a lap belt for use off road without the distraction of the shoulder portion......

I'm running RJS 5 point harnesses in the zuk. Most of the time I just drive with only the lap belt in use.

I would just go with a 5 point harness and just run the lap if that's all you want to typically use. This way you can always run the shoulders and submarine portion if you want to.

i need to find a way to mount them if i go with the harness and an interior cage is not in the near future for my truck. I am definately going with the lap belt as it just makes sense for the wheeling I do and is not an expensive thing to do, especially for safety

No cage? With the way you drive? :eek: j/k

I know you were just looking for a lap belt, but it's worth picking up the harness since you can install just the lap, or any additional part of it. Then if you add an internal cage later down the road you will already have the rest of the harness.

For brands, RJS and Simpson are some of the more popular ones. The Simpson is definately one of the hi-end setups to go with. RJS is more of an economy setup. Strong and safe, but not as convenient of a latching setup. A lot of the price difference comes in due to the latching system.

Try crow or deist. Both produce high quality belts, dont use a 5 point unless you have a cage, also be aware that anything you get seat belt wise will not be DOT approved, which means run your stock seat belts on the street. You cna bolt these to the floor, however a cage is the correct way to do this.
