- Retractable three-point belt
- Steel button buckle

- FMVSS 209 and 302 rated
Plenty of 1987-1991 F-Series trucks were ordered in XLT Lariat trim with captain's chairs and a center console. Seatbelt Planet's bucket seat belt for those standard cab trucks is a retractable lap and torso belt with a steel button buckle, sold for one person, with mounting hardware included.
Fitment
Listed for the driver's side or passenger's side bucket seat of F-Series Ford trucks from 1987-1991 two-door regular cabs, for trucks with a center console.
Webbing Colors
Fifty-two webbing colors are offered on the option, 13 premium, even though the product text still mentions 32 colors.
Why Replace?
Bucket seat belts rub against the seat bolster and console every time you climb in, and the webbing near the buckle is usually the first to fray.
Belt Care
Keep the buckle out of the console hinge, clean the strap with a weak soap solution, and let it retract slowly.
About the 1987-1991 F-Series Bucket Belt
Ford's XLT Lariat package added cloth captain's chairs, upgraded trim and extra sound deadening, and those trucks have aged into comfortable classic cruisers.
Before You Install
Clean the threads at the floor and pillar mounts and make sure the console-side buckle mount is sound.
Good to Know
One bucket seat belt.
This belt is made for the console layout, so check that your truck still has its factory captain's chairs before ordering.
A two-belt kit for these bucket seats is also listed if both sides need work.
The all-metal buckle stands up well to daily use.
Seatbelt Planet includes hardware, so the job needs only basic hand tools.
Call 574-226-6676 if your truck has had its seats swapped.
The center console in these trucks puts the buckle closer to the seat than on a bench truck, so the belt is cut and fitted for that layout rather than for a bench.
Bucket-seat F-Series trucks were often optioned with power windows, tilt wheel and upgraded sound, and owners who keep them in nice shape want the belts to match.
Brush the console-side buckle clean now and then, since coins and grit tend to collect between the seat and the console.
Seatbelt Planet states this belt includes mounting hardware.
Plenty of these captain's chair trucks show six-figure odometers, and the driver belt carries every one of those miles.
If only the passenger belt has faded, this single listing works for that side just as well.
