Fortunately, these belts are plenty long with lots of adjustment ;D

When I set them I clipped them and pulled them back until they fit me on the hips good then marked the spot. It may be a difference in size among folks since nothing is adjustable on the jeep. I am 5'9" about 185 with a 33 inch waist. I won't get any taller but the other stuff is subject to change.

Thanks Steve,

I tried the belts today and I think that the angle is better with them mounted just a little higher than the hat channel, as you have yours. And maybe 6" or so back from the riser....I'll work on it some more before drilling though!

Here is my set up. Belts are actually 1983 dated.

It sounds like a good plan, and he may even offer a sip...

CJ-5's aircraft belts sure bring back memories.� Put the exact same belts in my '56' CJ-5 back in '70'.  Got em at the Elmendorf base surplus store.� Gotta see if I can get them back from my nephew.� Probably take a whole bottle of *.

I have some 60's era lap belts and put one side on the slope of the wheel housing and the other about 4.5 inches back on the deck with 3/8 bolts through and large washers on the back side and nylock nuts on them.
