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!

While you have them extended, hold the axle while you push the belt back thru. slide out the retaining pin from the pocket sewn in the belt and then remove the belt pulling it back through.

Don't let go of the axle or it'll spin to full-loose. I use a small screwdriver thru the slot where the belt goes to keep it from getting away.

Then just add more tension by spinning the axle against the tension for as far as you can - re-thread the belt and install the pin. that should really help the retraction tension.
