I need a few photos of a set of Jumpseats in a Gen 2 brat. I'm having a box

made as a mount for putting seats in my 86. I need to know how the seatbelts

and headrests were mounted. I have all the pieces (Seats with frames, Belts,

headrests), I just need an Idea how they go together.

 

My main questions are:

Is the male end of the seatbelt mounted to the side of the bed?

Is the female end with the actual belt mounted to the metal frame, or to the

back wall of the bed?

How high are the seats mounted above the bed?

How much room is there between the seats?

 

Thanks for the help

Q: Is the male end of the seatbelt mounted to the side of the bed?

 

A: Neither, mount them between the seat on the bottom of the bed

 

Q: Is the female end with the actual belt mounted to the metal frame, or to the back wall of the bed?

 

A: Again, they mount to the bottom of the bed, but on the out side of the seats

 

Q: How much room is there between the seats?

 

A: Not sure, but about five inches.

Thanks for the info. For some reason, I was under the impression that the part of the seatbelts with the actual belt on it was mounted between the seats. Backwards from any other seatbelts I'd ever seen, but that's not so unusual for a subaru.

 

I'm having a 18" x 36" x 3.5" tool box built to put the seats on. My brat is an "86, so it never had the jumpseats. That was half the reason I wanted a Brat, but I didn't know enough about them when I bought it. The box should be done by this weekend, so I'll post a feew photos of the finished product.

I've got a jump-seat frame that was cut out if a BRAT bed. The frame onwhich the plastic seats are bolted is shaped to fit onto this frame: the rear of the seats fit onto the round portion of the bed frame and the front of the seat frame lips-over the front L-shaped portion of the bed frame, and that's where you put the bolt to hgold the seat onto the bed frame.

 

A few bucks plus shipping would do it.

I appreciate the info and the offer of the frame. I'm actually having something built that should replicate the original frame. I just needed some approximate measurements. I had some photos from a set of seats that somebody was selling on E-Bay, but they were already removed from the bed.

 

The tool box I'm having built should be pretty cool. It will be fairly small, but big enough for some small tools and emergency supplies. Plus the seats and belts will be easily removable. It should be ready this weekend. WooHoo!!!
