Fitment Notes
Listed for the driver and passenger of 1976-1981 Jeep CJ models, which Seatbelt Planet says includes CJ5, CJ6, CJ7 and CJ8.
Available Colors

Why New Belts Matter
Open Jeeps expose belts to sun, rain and mud. New belts replace worn originals.
Keeping Them Like New
Rinse off mud, wash gently with mild soap and let the belts dry before retracting.
About the 1976-1981 Jeep CJ
The CJ line traces back to wartime Jeeps, and the CJ7 arrived for 1976 with a longer wheelbase.
Before You Install
Plan to reuse sound bolts or buy new ones, and check every anchor point.
Good to Know
Hardware not included.
The CJ8 Scrambler arrived in 1981; check fitment for your exact model.
Both belts come from one roll of webbing.
Retractors keep the straps tidy in an open cab.
CJs remain popular classic trail rigs.
Pair with rear belts in the same color.
Seatbelt Planet lists these CJ belts as FMVSS 209 and 302 compliant and cuts both from one roll of webbing.
No bolts come with this CJ kit, so line up good original or new grade-rated fasteners first.
The CJ7 arrived for 1976 with a longer wheelbase than the CJ5, more legroom and an available automatic transmission, while the CJ6 was a stretched version sold mainly outside the United States.
The CJ8 Scrambler, a pickup-style CJ, arrived for 1981; Seatbelt Planet's note says this kit fits CJ5, CJ6, CJ7 and CJ8.
Open-top Jeeps expose belts to rain and UV, so a cover or soft top helps the new webbing last.
Upper anchor points vary with roll bars and aftermarket tops, so check that your Jeep has a sturdy upper mount on each side before ordering a three-point kit.
Retractors keep the shoulder straps from flapping in an open cab and from dragging in the dirt when you hop out on the trail.
Pair the front kit with a rear lap belt set in the same color for a uniform interior.
CJs from these years remain some of the most popular classic off-roaders, with strong aftermarket support and active clubs.
Laredo and Renegade CJs often wear colorful interiors, so a matching strap shade can look sharp.
Removable tops on many CJs mean the belts see full sun, so fresh webbing makes a visible difference.
Both belts arrive ready for your bolts.
