The only problem with those is that they're not exactly the same. Although if they replace the latch then they might also be different. From what I understand rebuilding them is a lot cheaper.

The Mess Hall / YJ seat belt replacement
« Last post by neale_rs on May 02, 2024, 04:35:34 PM »Haven't posted in quite a while. I hope everybody is doing great.
Have been having trouble with the front seat belts in the YJ. They sometimes get stuck when being pulled out and often don't retract fully. They are 29 years old after all.
Does anybody know of a good replacement so that they are as much like stock as possible? In particular, are there any that will keep the part that is bolted to the floor raised next to seat like the stock setup?
Thanks

I found a amr 500 supercharger on amazon for $120. its made for 2.0 motors so it'll be safe for ours. You'll also have to get a blowoff valve which is about $20 on ebay motors and a intercooler for about $70. I still have to get piping and metal to make mounts and to run everything together. if anyone else has tried this before please let me know if there is anything else I need before I get my hopes up.I'm always wary of going too cheap. Keep us updated though!
