Seat belt connection points

Hello all

I recently did a cab swap on my 1976 F250 supercab. I broke the golden rule "never scrap anything until your done". It appears that my replacement cab had jump seat and i had a bench seat. Need to make a bracket for the latch no big deal.
Now to the seat belts question, does the seat belt retractor mount to the side wall of cab vs. to the two 2 of the 4 holes in the back wall. If one of you have a bench seat I would appreciate a pic or two. Thanks

So on a reg cab the belt retractor it in the B pillar on a 78/79. And a floor reel on a 73-76. And mr maybe in the SC b pillar. It is confusing and I do not have my parts truck to go look at any more. Rear fold up (where you set sideways) jump seats ='s lap belt. And I seem to remember with a rear folder bench, you still only get lap belts for the back seat.


Here is what the fold up rear bench latch and the cover looks like. it came from the passenger side of the truck. I cut this one out of a 79 SC and sold it to a FTE member.
