hey a fellow west tennessee'er, like the rollbar did you integrate (or will you) a seatbelt attachment..... (dont get all high and mighty on me from the peanut gallery i have little kids)

Ive been thinking about doing something similar. what pipe did you use and who bent it

Well done looks like a quality job . I hope you never have to use it

Thanks for the comments.

The Truck is Hummer Candy apple red!

I have attachments for the Belts on the floor (tied into the seat mounting bolts) and I used a bar at shoulder height to secure the shoulder belts.
I used 1.75 DOM tubing, and did the work with a friend in his backyard garage.

I'd love to get together, and I've posted a few more pics of the whole truck.

looks good. what is it tying into under the truck? does it clear the stock top .i like the tires you have on there they look good

 

[DocKill]

Thanks for the kudos....The bar is tied into the cab (welded in actually) with plates for added support. I designed it to fit under the hardtop. Tires are Mickey Thompson Baja Claws on Marsh wheels (16 inch)

Might want to think about tying it into the frame. 100x better than what was there. Nice job.

I agree! I plated a large area near the mounting of cab to frame. Eventually I plan to add a more direct connection!
