Re: Just gettin started... should have waited to patch the floor till after the auto is in. Not a lot of room to do much under there.

Just gettin started... Pack the center of the bushing and the void behind it with axle grease or wet bread. Pack it. Pack it good.
http://youtu.be/IIEVqFB4WUo Then take a dowel rod, insert it into the hole, and tap it with a mallet. The bushing will work itself out. _________________ Stroppe'd 1972 Sport, 302, 3 speed with old school Duff floor shifter, T shift Dana 20 with JB Fab twin stick, 4.11 gears with Trac-loc, Lincoln hydroboost, Chevy disc conversion, WH gas lift gate shock kit, 33" Duratrac tires on slots and about 2.5" of lift, Stroppe installed: bumper braces, dual shocks on all four corners, GM power steering, trans cooler mount, auto shift column, rollbar.

Re: Just gettin started... My Father's Day gift to myself, new three-point shoulder harness for the rear seat. It came with all new eyebolt hardware that installed in the stock seatbelt positions for that custom-stock look.
After my boys help me do the install we all went for a ride to A&W and got some Rootbeer floats, Sweet!!!

Re: Just gettin started... A word of caution. having the shoulder straps bolted low like that to the floor can and will cause very bad things to happen in the event of an accident. having them bolted low will compress their spine in the event.

Re: Just gettin started... What Rob said. The forward movement of a body in a crash causes straps set up like that to put serious downward pressure on the spine, and can cause severe spinal injuries. To be safe you'll need to add a cross bar at shoulder height, then run the shoulder straps over that.

Re: Just gettin started... Ideally, the harness bar should be at or slightly below shoulder height. Most harness makers recommend a 0-20 degree downward angle from the shoulder to the mounting point

Re: Just gettin started... Looks like your roll bar lends itself to allowing you to add that cross-bar. The position is tough for growing kids tho!!
Like Justin said, 0-20 deg which usually ends up being 1" below shoulders. _________________ 1973 Bronco, 351 SEFI, Locked, discs, 35's ZF-5spd and Atlas 4spd. 235:1 Crawl Ratio. It may be ugly, but it's slow. http://www.ucora.org |

Re: Just gettin started... Welcome. That's a good article. Simpson's install inductions area also quite good if you want a shorter version.
