All,

I rebuilt the '74 2.0 over the past few years and did not do anything with the seatbelts...........I tried and the coils jumped out - took me a day to get that back together......

The seatbelts do not recoil properly nor are they easy to pull into place.....draggy and catching.......

Is there a thread in the forum with a solution to this aggravation?

Thank you Teeners!

Here’s mine soaking in bucket, I left them in overnight and agitated them several times. The water was black, so I changed out with fresh water to do a final rinse and then hung them up for a day to air dry.
They seem to work much better. I believe a clean belt has less friction so it retracts better. I have not installed them yet, so that will be the true test.

Cheers,
John
