Lift latch buckles give a square-body GMC cab a vintage touch, and this Seatbelt Planet bench kit combines them with retractable three-point belts for the driver, passenger and center. A Buckle Style option lets you pick between two buckle choices, and hardware is part of the package.
Where It Fits
Listed for 1973-1987 GMC standard cab pickups with a bench seat, covering all three front seating positions.
Color Options
Order the set in any of 52 webbing colors; 13 are premium. A shade matched to the bench upholstery keeps the look factory-like.
Why Replace Old Belts?
Square-body owners often find a jumble of original and replacement belts in their trucks. A complete matched kit cleans up the cab and gives every rider a retractable belt.
Care Tips
Lift and lower the latch covers gently, wipe them with a soft cloth, and wash the webbing with mild soap when needed.
About the Square-Body GMC Pickup, 1973-1987
Square-body GMC pickups came in Fenderside and Wideside bed styles and in trims from basic work trucks to the well-equipped Sierra Classic. Their simple design keeps them popular with classic truck builders.
Before You Install
Tip the bench forward, locate the six floor anchors and the upper pillar mounts, and clean each thread.
Good to Know
Two buckle choices.
Seatbelt Planet adds a charge for the second Buckle Style choice.
Lift latch covers open with a simple upward motion.
Every strap in the trio shares one shade.
Matched belts look sharp in show photos.
Three belts let the truck carry a full bench of riders.
Restorers sometimes choose lift latch buckles for a square-body because they recall belts seen in many seventies trucks, while the retractable webbing gives modern convenience.
A matched three-belt kit means the left, middle and right riders all have the same look and feel, and the cab looks finished when the doors are open at a show.
The Buckle Style option lets owners who prefer a different latch make that choice at checkout without hunting for another listing.
Two photos on the listing show the belts and buckles, which helps when comparing the kit against your cab. Belts are cut and stitched after checkout, all from one roll, so left, middle and right look alike.
A square-body with three matching belts and color-keyed buckles is a pleasure to climb into, whether the truck is headed to a show or the hardware store.
Square-body owners who drive their trucks year-round appreciate retractable belts on all three seats, because the straps stay clean and off the floor mat even in muddy weather.
