Angry Seatbelt Locking Problem

My seatbelt locked the other day and won't retract. Luckily it is locked in a postion that still allows me to use it while driving but it is annoying me. Anyone had this problem before? How did you fix it?

Seatbelt Locking Problem

Supercab or regular? If it's Supercab, I think it's pretty easy to get to the mechanism that controls when the seatbelt reel locks. On mine, it's behind the removable plastic panel under the little seat that pulls out from the side. Your belts might just be bound up in there. Maybe if you can strip it down to where you can see it, you'll notice what is going wrong.

That's where I'd start.
