Fitment
Storm cockpit chairs, 1997-2001.
Webbing Colors
Fifty-two webbing tones are offered for the Storm strap.
Why Replace?
Storm coaches are now more than twenty years old, and their original cockpit webbing is often faded and slow to rewind.
Belt Care
A damp cloth with mild detergent cleans Storm webbing; let it dry fully extended.
About the Fleetwood Storm
Fleetwood's Storm was a gas Class A sold in the late 1990s alongside the Bounder and Flair, aimed at buyers wanting a lively floor plan.
Before You Install
See whether your Storm belt is bolted to the chair or the floor before ordering.
Good to Know
The listing does not mention Storm hardware.
Storm owners who bought their coach used often find the passenger belt barely used and the driver belt worn through.
A sticky Storm buckle can usually be traced to soda or coffee spilled in the cockpit over the years.
Gas coaches like the Storm are often parked for long stretches between trips, and webbing sitting in a reel can take a set.
Storm cockpit chairs may swivel, so straighten the strap after turning the passenger seat.
Replace both Storm belts together to keep the webbing color uniform.
A windshield shade on a parked Storm helps the belts resist fading.
Tug each Storm belt hard before setting out to confirm it locks.
Questions about your Storm? Call 574-226-6676.
The Storm name was used on Fleetwood gas coaches in the late 1990s, and many still roll into state parks every summer.
A Storm that has been a rental or a tailgate rig usually has more belt wear than its odometer would suggest.
Storm cockpits sit low behind a sweeping windshield, and in hot sun the dash and belt webbing take the full brunt of the heat.
If a Storm belt locks every time you lean forward, the reel may be dirty or the webbing curled; a fresh belt fixes both problems.
Storm owners restoring a late-1990s interior often find new cockpit belts are among the items still offered new.
Pets who claim the Storm passenger seat on trips can scratch through webbing near the buckle tongue.
Ordering the Storm belt in a color slightly darker than the upholstery hides grime between washes.
A Storm stored at a lot with mice can lose a belt overnight to chewing; check under the dash for nests each spring.
Late-1990s Fleetwood coaches sometimes had aftermarket cockpit chairs added by later owners, so confirm the Storm anchors match.
End release latching on the Storm strap matches the style most drivers know from passenger cars.
