With shoulder straps, the lap belts have two buckles. One for the tongue of the lap belt, another for the tongue of the separate shoulder strap.

The separate shoulder straps attached to the upper right & left corners of the cab, once the rubber plugs were removed. See 1973/75 pic below.


I think Detailed view C shows a retractor. Do you have any part numbers? I don't have the plugs in the B pillar for shoulder harnesses.

My '76 highboy look exactly like the pictures butcher posted. just one buckle. must have changed at some point in production from the 2 buckle system.

Nobody makes reproductions for these that are close to original.

Nah I got 3 buckles. The other two are under the seat from tilting the backrest looking for tools trying to escape.

3 buckles meaning one for each passenger right ? otherwise you'd have 5 .

the belts on my 76 are just like the ones on my 79.

I only have two buckles since my truck didn't come with a center seat belt, one or the driver, one or the passenger.
