Second row seat belts

Post by wewillsurvive »

I'm not sure if this is ok in here or where to put it exactly so if it needs moved please feel free.

I bought the second row seat belt kit from ZM Jeeps. Got all the parts and started to get a feel for how it would go together, I have talked to Zach and he told me the attachment plate for the shoulder mount goes in the C-pillar all I had to do was figure out where I wanted it drill the hole drop it down the c-pillar with a wire or string bolt it up and move on. So I was like cool sounds easy enough, while investigating I found there isn't anyway to just drop in down the c-pillar.

Any ideas? Has anyone used this kit? Write up on it?

I've been to Zack's shop and have seen these belts in a rig that he was selling on commision.
This is a Z&M Jeep exclusive product and Zack is really gonna be the best source for this.
It looks to be about a 4 hour trip for you, but I would recommend scheduling some time with Zack on a Saturday and drive up to get his help.
Spend some time in Toledo, visit the Bass Pro Shop, eat a Tony Packo hot dog, maybe Camp at Maumee State Park...make it a great weekend.
I would be happy to go with you if I am free that weekend you decide to go.

Fixed, I used the third row belt upper attachment and the stock retractor spot and the wheelwell for the new retractor mounting area.

Any pictures of your install? I would be interested for sure.

Looks good. You did the install like the "BigScaryJeep" write up. You have your headliner out which helps for sure.
Thanks for the pics.

Looking forward to a report on how they feel when you're belted up. I plan on a set but thought the high connection point would make it uncomfortable around the neck.

I sat in it but only for a minute or so it wasn't uncomfortable. They aren't for me though, they are for my kids in booster seats... Which worked great last night for little man's seats.

Eventually I will sell these then put in a roll cage and five point harnesses for all seats.

I figured if they ride too high on the neck that I'd get a set of those upper solid extensions that are used in full size vans. GM uses these for the seat next to the sliding door to lower the upper buckle. But if they fit OK, one less reason to go to the junkyard.

Looking forward to install details and pictures.
