Q for NumberDummy

You posted this on another thread I started last week.

1967/76 F100/750 & 1977 F250 4WD (High Boys): Shoulder straps were optional, cab corners have rubber plugs that once removed the straps bolt to.

With optional shoulder straps, the R/L lap seat belts contain two buckles. One for the tongue of the lap belt, one for the tongue of the shoulder strap.

1977: First year one piece shoulder belts were available (except High Boys) as standard equipment.

Newer seats are wider, when closing the doors, the seat may contact the R/L door armrests.

Parts catalog pic for 1972, 1967/71 & 1973/76 similar.

When at the junkyard I did see a 73-76 with shoulder straps and I seem to remember that the retractor was up there in the door post. I can't tell from your pic if there's a retractor up there or not.

My question: where is the retractor?

qman. The above pic is for Bumps. The Dents had newer more updated shoulder belts. So this pic does not apply to 73-76 Dents. As I recall the retractor was mounted up high as you mentioned. At the JY pull on the belt. You will be able to tell.

Left (upper) 1973/75 'Dent' pic same as 1972 'Bump' pic.



Right (upper): 1976/77 Shoulder belt doesn't jive with 1976 shoulder strap applications listed at right (lower).

Left (lower) Regular Cab: Same pic as right (upper), different applications.

OK well what I saw then was the 76-77 shoulder strap app.

Could this be put in my 72? Could I take all of those parts and put them in my truck?
