HarryS Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Congratulations. It's a great feeling to get them back on the road. It is also a lot of fun to talk to people that either drove or worked on them. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32854-finally/#findComment-207404 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomastractorsvc Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 That's what my 6 year old daughter wants to do,have to figure out a seatbelt next...I went to O'Reilly's they have some DOT approved lap belts for $17 bucks, same here my wife said no kids until seat belts. Happy Wife= Happy Life http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/SPR5/463250B/N0332.oap?ck=Search_seat+belt_-1_1761&keyword=seat+beltJust drill couple holes and install, I think it comes with everything to include instructions. When I redid the floor I used 1/4"' x 2 x 2 angle across the back of the cab for re enforcement and I just drilled my holes in to that. I have installed seat belts in other trucks and mounted either to the rear seat mounts or through the floor if you do that just make to use a large fender washer under the floor to stop any pull though, it is a 10 minute job even if you have to drill new holes. 1 Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."
