Has anyone bought seatbelts from this company?

Last week. Install was a piece of cake. Even got to find out that the PO only installed the front 4 bolts in the seat

Needless to say, that is fixed now.

I got the same set from Brotherstrucks.com but I haven't put them in yet.

How do these belts do when going over bumps in road? The lap belt portion on my 77 stock belts want to tighten up a notch everytime you hit a big bump and before you know it they are choking you off, the shoulder portion works fine and only tightens on impact then releases. Do these remain slack?

Here's what they look like off the truck. Just got them in today. I'll post a pic when I get them installed.

looking forward to seeing the pics of them installed, i am getting ready to start the interior of my truck and I am thinking this is the best option for new seat belts

Everything bolts up in the stock location. I'd imagine 73-87 all had the same floor board and bolt holes so yea. Oh and those latches just slide into some rigid plastic peices otherwise they would just be "limp"? lol

They look great Dave, looks like to me weel worth the time and effort and money. I think I will be going this route to in the spring when I do my interior, thanks for the heads up on the belts.
