re: shoulder belts
So how hard is it install that top mount? I looked at mine and it looks like I will have to do some kind of stand on my head dance to get that bolt on a nut.

On my 67 there is a nut welded to a plate all ready to accept a bolt. Have you poped off the rubber peice and looked?

I already have popped the rubber off the passenger side. I can see no nut in there. I guess I'll pull off the drivers side and look at that side. I was only going to get a passenger belt for my boys.MadMaxetc wrote:On my 67 there is a nut welded to a plate all ready to accept a bolt. Have you poped off the rubber peice and looked?

re: shoulder belts
The belt rubs slightly on my neck, but my wife holds the belt to keep it off of her neck. She is 5'4". I guess I will have to try to find something to lower the mount or to clamp the chest part of the strap so it fits lower. You can get just the lap belts, but I drive my truck on the Interstate a good bit and feel more comfortable with the shoulder belts.

re: shoulder belts
I have heard that some of those holes are tapped already, and others are not.
