Shoulder Harness & Belts

wslade2 · #1 08-04-20, 10:37 PM

awesome. I'm in the serial number range. Looks like I take it just need to buy the parts/belts for the middle seats (the ones I want to do) and install. As you say, same belts as for pilot and copilot. Anchor hole for shoulder harness already installed at factory? (I'll be looking next time I go out)

It looks like that to me, and others have reported finding mounting attach points under the headliner.

I can't upload the manual (too large) but send me a PM and I'll send you a PDF with the relevant pages & part numbers.

Can confirm the mounting holes on my 337G (1535). My interior is out right now and I can take pictures of the mounting holes tomorrow if you’d like. I plan to install BAS in the front, something with inertial reel in the middle and the straight cessna kit in the rear.

After installing my BAS in the front, I moved the front belts (cessna 3 point harness) to the second row and it fit almost perfect!

@JimC

Did you follow up on your purchase for the AMSafe 3-point harness. My aircraft is a Cessna 337A around 400 for the serial number, so from reading some of these posts it will only have the 3-point harness for the pilot and copilot.

I installed the 4-point BAS system in my SkyMaster and it worked fine. I would change to the rotary buckle instead of the 4-piece attachment. The 4-piece is mechanically simpler, but is harder for passengers to figure out.

I've also installed the AmSafe airbags in another plane and I like them. They come with a shoulder reel but it is NOT required for the airbags to be legal, functional and safe - you can install the lap belt & airbag without the shoulder reel. If you're looking for extra safety for the rear seats this is what I'd recommend. Installation was fairly straightforward (I did it myself with an A&P signoff.) Disconnection is easy if you want to remove the seats for any reason.

Thanks for the answer JimC. I wanted to install 3 points, at least in the front seats. I found a person at Amsafe for my mechanic to talk to about the installation.
