Blatman Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 And for the technically minded..... The three point harnesses are manufactured so that it would be difficult for the belts to "meet in the middle" in a crash, 'cos they are sewn together at an angle, IYSWIM. The 4 pointers (sharing a fitting) can be pulled together. In the speed/impact of an accident, the edges of the belts will be pulled towards the centre of the drivers neck as you are propelled forwards. They *may* be pulled together enough to act like a sharp pair of scissors (depending on the speed of the impact), 'cos the belts can pivot on the mounting........ On the plus side, you won't look like the Osborme kid any more, more like the headless horseman from Scooby Doo........ I'm with Mark on the "safety at all costs" thing too. Why take (more) un-necessary risks when the solution is easy, cheap, and proven? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Stanton Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 enough to act like a sharp pair of scissors Even sharp enough to cut through your neck Wrox Sorry Blatters didn't think it was worth going down the load distribution avenue Blunt forthright English time for Wrox on this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westfields Rock On Posted March 18, 2003 Author Share Posted March 18, 2003 where can i get the luggs to weld to the chassis. how much they cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick M Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 Westfield. Less than the cost of a pint. Probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Navin Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 Wrox. If you give Paul a ring at Playscool he is making a set for Mike. If you talk to him realy nicely he may do you some as well. HTH Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westfields Rock On Posted March 18, 2003 Author Share Posted March 18, 2003 i know a guy who can make some up in the workshop. Is this ok or do they need to be some specific spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Stanton Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 And computers are easier to re-boot F.F.S. WROX Take your car to Paul at Plays Kool - he knows the spec and standard required for the seatbelt lugs - or phone Westfield they will post some to you Then have them welded into the correct position by a certified welder. Paul @ Plays Kool = 01274 680100 Westfield = 01384 400077. I don't think we can make it any easier or simpler Please do as you're told - BEFORE YOU DIE Have you read a post by anyone saying how fantastic your set-up looks at the moment = NO. Thats as big a clue as you're ever gonna get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steppenwolf Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 Please do as you're told - BEFORE YOU DIE Mark, I'm not sure quite what it is you are trying to say here - can you please stop beating about the bush and say what you mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
