All the other seat belts
Didn't find anything in the book, so are the passenger seat belts optional? At N, I am using the factory belts.

Re: All the other seat belts
As I understand it in N you can run stock belts.
I'm running N myself, but I put in a roll bar and use SFI 16.1 belts anyway. And for me running M may be an option later anyway, in which case those will be mandatory. |
Re: All the other seat belts
We run N and also have a roll bar and 5 pt harness.
You do not need passenger belt UNLESS you are riding with a stuffed animal (Seen that before) or an inflatable sex doll (Had that put in my Demon before)! |
Re: All the other seat belts
If it makes any sense, yes, OE seat belts are OK from N on down, BUT if you install an SFI-rated harness you must replace it every two years. First thing I did was replace the almost 45-year-old driver's belts in the 'wagon, figuring that my peace-of-mind (and safety!) was worth $35 a year. I don't run a roll-bar yet, so i don't use the shoulder harness. I also just left the other OE belts alone.

Re: All the other seat belts
In the past old belts were ok if they were not required. Has that changed?

I run expired 3in belt in my car all the time with no problems and nobody complaining

Re: All the other seat belts
I was told by our Divisonal Tech director if you run a roll bar in N or lower , one can run a 5 point harness that does not have to have current date tags on it. He as well mentioned some tech people may not t be aware of this.

I run them in the Dakota and like them. Now they are going in the Dakota, the gremlin and likely the dragpak. I ordered three sets yesterday, they are shipping today. Got to like that! Eric |
