    Just installed Julianos 3 point shoulder belts....quality materials, parts for a solid and safe install even for this novice.

    Juliano's

    On my 5 window cab, I welded the back-up plates per Juliano's photo installation instuctions. They work like a charm. Make sure you get the longer latch belt, the short ones they first sent keep sliding under the seat when not in use.

    Those two sites have some great information. I wish I had seen them before I purchased and installed lap belts.

    I may go ahead and install three point belts in my modified truck anyway just because these two sites make it look so easy.

    Thanks!

    Big back window

    Anybody ever use these on a big back window?

    I installed them about 6-8 years ago when I first got the truck and my dad insisted on the 3-point harness. Since I've started the restoration I have removed them and have no intention of putting them back in because I hated how they looked attached to the B pillar and could be seen through the back window.

    I'm planning on going to lap belts.
