Seat Beat Twisted

[mandyfig]

Any recommended tricks on how to un-twist the stupid Seat belt? Means, it needs 180 degree rotation, but the buckle is tight....

Pisses me off.

Thanks.

unblot it from the bottom and take the twist out

Same thing happened to the ones in my Trooper. We are only subjected by law to use seatbelts on the highway here in Belize so it doesn't bother me much when I'm driving it.

Where is it twisted? Near the buckle or near the B-pillar?

[chronoti]

you can also use ALOT of force did that too works well

ahhh lol...you gotta carefully fold the belt and pulling the buckle, at an angle one way over the fold will make it slide through and at the same time have it straighten out but it will flip around

Unblot it from the bottom.....need explanation, please.....

I guess it is muscle power then?

Thanks.

Yeah fold it at least half way and pull the buckle in an angle and using a clamp or something to grip the belt and just pull the end that will make it striaght, I did this same method for all four of my seat belts and each takes 5 mins only.

do you use belt pads? for some reason belt pads have a habit of making the thing twist around... probably because it cant sit down properly after you take ya belt off.

Yup, this is the fix. It takes some time, patience and stregth.

^^I figured that was the way since that's how it got twisted in the first place.
