Plenty of 1968-1972 GMC pickups have had their in-cab fuel tank moved under the bed or between the frame rails, and that frees the space a shoulder belt reel needs. This Seatbelt Planet belt takes advantage of it. A single reel-equipped belt with chest and hip straps, closing into a solid steel push button latch, suits whichever window end of the bench needs it, and Seatbelt Planet packs the bolts along with it.

Vehicle Fit

Seatbelt Planet lists this single belt for standard cab GMC pickups built from 1968 through 1972 with a bench seat and no tank behind the seatback. It works on the driver side or the passenger side.

Choosing a Color

Choose from 52 webbing colors. Thirteen of those shades are premium options. Many owners pick black or a color pulled from the bench upholstery so the strap disappears into the interior.

Why Upgrade?

Factory belts in these GMCs have passed the half-century mark, and almost none of them ever had an upper strap. A three-point strap spreads the load across the chest as well as the hips, and the reel keeps loose webbing from dragging on the floor mat.

Maintenance

Wipe the webbing with a mild soap solution when it gets dusty, let it air dry fully before retracting, and keep it out of the door opening when you close up the cab.

About the 1968-1972 GMC Standard Cab Pickup

GMC sold its second-generation C/K pickups with styling that set them apart from the Chevrolet twins, including a full-width grille and GMC block letters. Trim levels such as Custom and Sierra added brighter interiors, and many of these trucks now see weekend duty as cherished classic trucks.

Pre-Install Checklist

Before ordering, confirm the cab truly has no tank behind the seat. Then locate the floor anchor at the bench end and the upper mount on the back panel, clean the threads, and check the metal for rust.

Good to Know

Single belt; buy two for both outboard ends.

Because one belt fits either end, it is a good choice when only one original belt has failed.

Retractors on a relocated-tank truck sit where the tank used to be, so the shoulder strap comes over the rider's shoulder at a natural angle.

Seatbelt Planet sews each belt to order once the color is picked, which is why the webbing arrives fresh rather than from old stock.

Bench seat GMC trucks of this generation often carry three people, so plan the center position too if a middle rider is common.

Keep the receipt and color code handy in case you want a matching belt for the other side later.
