Yes, 3" for the shoulders and lap belts, 2" for the sub. I have plenty of any color in stock. :danc
"Fast68back" said:Why not build a bracket that uses the rear two seat bolts and comes up behind the seat to mount the belts to?
"joesgt281" said:These aren't sanctioning-body approved because they angle down and not straight back, but for a street car that only occasionally does a track day, it's alot better than a lap belt.
"Shaun" said:Lots of folks open track with all sorts of setups. You can do whatever you like I just wanted to get out there what is the safest setup and some possible issues with other configurations.
"Shaun" said:Seats are not designed to have the force of the belts pulling down on the shoulder harness slots.
"joesgt281" said:i hear you Shaun, but the only alternative I'm hearing is "put in a rollbar".
and on top of that I'm hearing "never put a rollbar in a street car if you ever want somebody to ride in the back".
i've got a lap belt and that's it.
isn't something like this better than that?
My fear is having my non-collapsable steering shaft through my chest.
i'm not convinced that there's a spine-compression risk when the straps go straight back through shoulder-height race-seat openings. If the seat breaks, then yes. If not, no.
It risk could be there, I just haven't seen the research on it.
"garner67" said:I saw someone at a track event who added just a cross bar for track days. He welded some quick release brackets for the cross bar that mount behind the upper sail panels. For track days, he just removed the upper sail panels; quickly installed the cross bar; and installed his shoulder harness to the cross bar. Although this solution does not provide the roll over protection (or chassis stiffening) of a roll bar, I thought it was a good alternative solution for someone who does not want to cut up their interior to install a roll bar/cage.
"LMan68" said:Question...is there any way to put a 13" rotor/ alum caliper behind a 15" rim, or does that defy physics and natural law? Some of us have 15" wheels for 'vintage' purposes...
I read your writeup on the 4-piston calipers, and thats a great job, but those are heeavvvvvyyyyy calipers....
