How are you mounting your 5th/6th points on the floor? Are you welding in hard points or doing a drill/tap/install eyelet hole?

I'm about ready to put in my 5pt setup, but don't want to halfass the sub-belt and am having a hard time deciding if I should do a weld in hard point or just do a drill/tap/eyelet setup.

Thoughts? Any pictures of your setups?

 

...nobody running a 5 or 6pt harness?

What are you guys racing with? 4pts?

 

When I had 5 points I had the sub strap wrapped around the seat bracket but i would use the plate and eyebolt.

 

I have mine wrapped around the seat bracket with some fancy knot I learned from climbing lol.

 

i think majority are running 3 and 4

 

Using the plate and eye bolt is your safest and easiest method. Other options are to use the existing lap belt attachment points (if your 5/6-pt leads are long enough) or welding a bracket into place.

The knot method is definitely NOT the way to go...no matter how fancy you think it is.

 

Yea, I'm pretty sure no matter how I do it the lead for my 5th point is too short to use a stock mounting location. I had assumed a plate/eye setup was going to be the best, just hoping to avoid accidentally doing work that was already remedied in some other fashion.

I looked at my seat rail and tried to fathom a way to tie the belt, but I couldn't see a way to do it that I would trust to support me in a crash.
