about VAC Floor Mounts and Harness Brackets

PerkM3 · Wed, Sep-29-2010, 02:46:24 PM

I've had my Sparco's installed now for about a month using the VAC floor mounts but my Kirk roll bar is on it's way and I've ordered the VAC lap belt mounting bracket and the anti-sub bracket that mount to the VAC floor mounts. I'm using the Schroth Profi II Harness and my question is does anyone have any advise or pictures on where I should mount the above brackets?

I know that the lap belts should be inline with the holes through the seats and go straight across my lap but where do I mount the anti-sub bracket (how far back)?

Any advice or info is appreciated.

VAC suggests you mount the anti-sub bracket as far back as possible (ideally within two or three rows from rearmost position on their long FMAs).

FWIW, I've mounted seat belt bracket on bottom of VAC long FMA (last row - which allows for a nylon nut on the bottom of M8 x 40 mm that runs through side mount, FMA, and seatbelt bracket).
