SB3PRxx    3-POINT RETRACTABLE LAP BELT

USER GUIDE AND INSTALLATION MANUAL

IMPORTANT:

When available, be sure to use the vehicle manufacturer's provisions to attach belts. When you 

use the manufacturer's threaded floor fittings, it is IMPORTANT that all full threads be engaged 

to obtain the ultimate strength of the anchorage. Reuse factory mounting bolts or use 7/16th" 

grade 5 or higher bolts. 

CAUTION:

Do not attach this belt directly to the seat. Death or serious injury could occur in an accident if 

the seat is not designed to withstand the additional load. FLOOR MOUNT ONLY! 

Installation Instructions:

1. Mount the short side of the belt INBOARD, toward the center of the vehicle. 

2. Avoid rough or sharp edges when choosing a belt path. 

WHERE NO FACTORY FITTINGS ARE AVAILABLE:

 

1. If the seat is adjustable, move to the rearmost position. 

2. Mark the floor to mount down and behind the seat to assure that the lap belt is pulling down-

ward and rearward at approximately a 70 degree angle. (Figure 1) 

3. Space the attachment points 15" to 25" apart so that the lap belt forms a "U" shaped loop 

when in use. (Figure 2) Never attach both ends of the same lap belt to the same anchorage or 

attachment point. 

4. Carefully drill 1/2" holes to avoid damaging exhaust system, brake or fuel lines. Always use 

the reinforcement plates (sold separately- part number SBHP, SKU# 12186) underneath the 

floor. (Figure 3) Examine and reinforce any weakened area of the floor pan.
