snakebite8 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Has anyone installed a newer bench seat in their bullnose. I have two young boys and I like to have three shoulder straps seat belts. So I was thinking I could install a newer bench and mount the seat belt to the back on the cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramttocs Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Assuming bench to bench you've got a few years you can pull from (until cab change). Have a 94 bench in my 80. Is there a specific year you are looking at? If bolting the belt to the cab, what is gained by swapping benches? Others may have ideas but adding seatbelts in new locations is territory I shy away from. IF I was looking into adding a seat belt where one wasn't designed for and tested, I would talk to some local roll cage builders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they have head protection for the middle person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakebite8 Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 This one has the seat belts in the center bench already connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just went outside and looked at a 2015 Supercab. Don't think I've ever lifted the center console up or even knew it had a shoulder belt. Can't recall reading about anyone installing one of those in our trucks. I can get measurements from mine if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
