well I'm kinda at a stopping point (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) some parts are on order.. I had posted a while ago about a racing harness seat belt and it seemed the popular opinion was they are a pain the the butt and restrict movement and are uncomfortable. So I kinda shrugged it off and planned on finding a better set than mine, mine are stiff need help getting back up... I posted a WTB ad, and the first replies seem to be in similar condition.... any body reconditioned theirs? any body used something else? I cant be the only one who needs something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I bought a NOS set about 15 years ago and now the drivers side is sticking. Is it possible to clean them or rebuild them? Knowing that a NOS set has been sitting on a shelf for 30 years what is the recommended option?
