5 point harness

[rangerdave571]

Anyone know if you can put a 4 or 5 point harness in the b23s? I'm trying to put 2 bucket seats instead of the original 60/40 and harnesses. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You can use the stock lap belt location for two of the four or five mounting points by getting a kit, but I wouldn't recommend it without a cage to attach the rest of the belt to. I've heard of floor mount kits but you still need a bar at shoulder level for the belts to wrap over. If you don't use that shoulder bar you can get spinal compression and drive a wheel chair for the rest of your life. DON'T put in a poser set of belts, stock is much better. That's until you get a cage with a shoulder belt mount bar of course. Mounting points are more important than the belts. One of the problems with stock belts is if your upside down they don't want to release, could be bad if your in a river or lake. Do some research before you disable yourself. I don't want to nag but this is VERY important stuff.
Good luck

What he said ^

In terms of a release mechanism, look for something ambidextrous, simple, but deliberate. the locks used on the Weapon R harnesses are a twist type release (simple and deliberate), turn them a quarter turn in either direction (ambidexterity) something like 12 lbs/inch and they push out all 5 latches.

So a box with a diagonal up top with a bar that goes across the cab at shoulder height and forms a box behind the seat with another diagonal and connect it throughout the cab would be sturdy enough to mount the shoulder pieces? What would you build the cage from? At the very least.
