Looks like the lift latch would be a good option as it wouldn't be as prone to dirt/dust contamination and has a lever arm so less force should be required. This one can be made in orange: Lap Seat Belts - Seatbeltplanet | The Worldwide Authority on Aftermarket Seatbelts The retractable...

The seat belt mostly worked but not entirely. It is also supposed to release with less than 30lbs of force applied to the release button on the buckle while it is also under load, for example after an accident. Enjoy: Seat Belt Buckle Release Force: Cause for Entrapment? Here is my orange seat...

The intermittency of this problem is one of the worst factors of trying to solve it. My smoke started several months ago on one big brush hogging job and then didn't reappear for at least a month. One morning early I cranked it up for a job and it was heaving heavy smoke. I had no choice but...

Well, I tried my hand at this mod over the weekend and figured I would share my results as well. My motive was not even 100% just to increase the lift capacity of my loader. I was also motivated by the desire to try new stuff and learn about things I've never done before. Of course, I couldn't...
