Seat Belts

February 3, 2005 in Interior

I’ve had some requests for pictures of how the TJ seat belts were worked into SSDutch’s rollcage. 

Back Seat:

Here’s the rear seat retractor, bolted to a flat steel gusset that’s welded at the joint of the rearmost vertical hoop and side bar that parallels the wheelhouse top:

Here’s the top anchor.  The roll bar was drilled out, then a piece of solid steel bar welded in place, then drilled and tapped for the bolt.

Here’s the rear bottom anchor, tied into the bars that run under the back seat:

Latch receptacles are visible in the middle bottom, where they can poke through the back seat when it’s installed.


Front Seats:

This is the retractor, attached in a similar fashion where the side bars of the cage meet the seat tie-in bars:

Upper anchors use the TJ height adjusters, attached in the same fashion as the rear upper anchors:

Latch receptacle mounting is visible in this pic:


Note that I didn’t do the work shown in these pics…the cage was built by a shop that I can’t recommend based on some other issues with the results.

    Your Jeep is lovely.  I just bought a 1962 CJ6 and need to find a roll bar or cage for it.  Do you have any advice on where the best place to start looking for something like that is?

    Thanks CP.

    IHMO, you need to find a fabricator as I did.  There are no 6-specific aftermarket bars or cages, and anything swapped in from a CJ5 is either going to look goofy or not protect the driver and passengers as it should.
