Hi all,
My 170b just went through its first annual, and my mechanic informed me I need new lap belts for my shoulder harness system as they are wearing out.
These are the only pictures I have of my set up...
Is anyone able to inform me on which lap belt exactly to order from ACS?
Thanks
New Lap Belt?

Re: New Lap Belt?
Have you asked your inspector which belts he will approve-of?

Re: New Lap Belt?
You just need to find belts that have the same fittings for attachment to the airplane and to the shoulder harnesses. ACS is always good, but Wag-Aero also has a good selection of belts and harnesses.
Another option is to have your belts re-webbed, using your existing fittings.

Reece, these appear to be similar to the ones you have. (Now is the time you can change color also if you wish.)
