I did a search on this and couldn't find anything... hope i'm not the only one with this problem. My seatbelts (passenger and drivers side) do not retract very well. If I kind of force them to retract they will but otherwise they take hours to retract all the way. That means they get shut in the door all the time and just get in the way. I have a 97 reg. cab tacoma... anyone else with this problem or have a fix?

Pretty much every taco owner has this problem. First of all try cleaning the belts real good. If that doesn`t help check this out.

I had a feeling it was a common problem... it pisses me off though I will try that and see what happens Thanks a bunch!

With that mod, your belts will work great for a while, then go back to their old ways :xcrybaby:

I think the only way to really fix the issue would be to widen the slot the belt slides through at shoulder height.

me to on both my '01 tacos. try cleaning the dirt off the plastic piece that the belt slides on above your shoulders--both sides.. that should really help..
