I took care of a few things today...

I removed and reinstalled my seats to the highest notch so that the height was closer to 0° at the shoulders in relation to the harness bar... came close but off like 5 degrees.

Also, I swapped the OEM buckle receptacles to the brackets that are part of the rails and installed an eyelet bolt on the spacer/bracket that was included with the Bride rails hardware.

Made a bushing for this bracket...







The main thing for me today was to get the harnesses in... I pretty much accomplished that. However, I had to order a longer eyelet bolt so that I can use the OEM 3 point belt. The HPI provided eyelet bolt was way too short to accommodate both belt assemblies. The longer eyelet bolt will be here Thursday.

Instead of drilling holes in my floor board for the 6-point I came up with this....







The steel brackets I found at Tractor Supply Company... They are called Shackle Links and are 1/4" thick. I made some bushings for the holes so that there wouldn't be much slop.

Better pics coming soon...it is too dark to take pics of the harnesses.
