Step 1 These are all the parts included with the Juliano's seat belt kit. Take some time to familiarize yourself with the parts as well as the instructions.
|
Step 2 Measure up from the floor to locate the shoulder point. This location can vary do to seat high and passenger size so be sure to factor this in.
|
Step 3 Make up a template for the area as shown that will fit down behind the sheet metal.
|
Step 4 Clamp the template behind the sheet metal and drill an 1/8" hole at your shoulder point mark, being sure to drill through the metal and template.
|
Step 5 Align the holes on your template and fine tune it to clear any interior panel screws or other obstructions.
|
Step 6 Trace your template onto the included B-pillar bracket, being sure to align the hole with the threaded shoulder bolt hole.
|
Step 7 Grind or cut the B-pillar bracket to match your template.
|
Step 8 B-pillar bracket ready for installation.
|
Step 9 Test fit the bracket and be sure that the pilot holes are aligned. Now drill the 7/16" hole for the shoulder bolt.
|
Step 10 Drill two more holes, one above and one below, to spot weld the bracket in place.
|
Step 11 You may have to bent the bracket slightly to match the contour of the cab.
|
Step 12 Re-install the bracket and use the shoulder bolt to tighten in place. You can also use a clamp to hold pressure on the plate while welding.
|
Step 13 Spot weld the bracket in place using the 2 predrilled holes.
|
Step 14 Clean up the welds. 120 grit flapper wheel on a 4" grinder works well for this.
|
Step 15 Here is the retractor installed. This location will keep the retractor mechanism clear of the fuel tank, filler neck and cab mount.
|
Step 16 Place one of the 90 degree L-Brackets supplied on the cab floor behind the seat pedestal as shown to layout mounting hole.
|
Step 17 Drill the 7/16" mounting hole.
|
Step 18 Next layout one of the included anchor plates to match the contour of the cab.
|
Step 19 Trim the plate and mock up to be sure hole lines up. Adjust as needed.
|
Step 20 Bolt the plate in place using one of the included bolts. Weld the plate to the seat pedestal.
|
Step 21 Install the L-Bracket and bolt in place using one of the lock nuts. The bracket should sit flat on the floor and the corner should just touch the small support.
|
Step 22 Weld the L-bracket to the floor and support beam.
|
Step 23 Here is the finished mounting plate.
|
Step 24 Mount the retractor by using one of the 1-1/2" long bolts and washer through the front and tighten. Install the retractor and tighten lock nut.
|
Step 25 Install the shoulder point using the included shoulder bolt.
|
Step 26 Layout the mounting points for the inboard soft arms. Typical spacing between the retractor and arm would be between 15" and 25".
|
Step 27 The holes should be just far enough in front of the seat pedestal to provide clearance for the end fitting to clear the pedestal.
|
Step 28 You may need to adjust the placement of the plate a little to provide a flat surface for mounting.
|
Step 29 Drill the 7/16" mounting holes. Also drill 2 holes to spot weld plates in place, one just behind the riser and one just in front of mounting hole.
|
Step 30 Bolt the plates in place under the truck using supplied bolts.
|
Step 31 Spot weld the 2 plates in place.
|
Step 32 Clean up the welds using a 4" grinder with 120 grit flap disc.
|
Step 33 Bolt the inboard arms in using supplied 1-1/2" long bolts and flat washers.
|
Step 34 Inboard arm installed.
|
Step 35 Time to enjoy your ride and be safe!
