Harness Bar Availability

sig11 · 05-28-2012, 12:32 PM

Hard to see in pictures but there are two bolts about 8" long that replace stock bolts under the back plastic.

I went to see WWJD's harness bar in person very nice build quality. I'll be getting one myself when I get seat installed.

Glad to see more options coming to market for this.

Just look at the pictures carefully, you should br able to find out the difference

Can you PM me what it would cost to get one of those ? Not sure if you are making more from reading your journal.

Robispec made one for their 370, mayhaps they can make you one as well. http://tinyurl.com/746t9q5

That actually looks fairly easy to replicate. Putting it simply, it looks like it's just a matter of fabricating the 2 mounting plates, cutting a pipe that's the right diameter and wall thickness, and then getting it welded together. I might take a look this weekend just to appease the engineer in me.

...it does not look like Robispec is very active these days.

Looks good, but I've seen some people comment that the position of that bar is too low relative to the seats. The bar should be higher so the harness is not angled down behind the seats. Anyone knows what's right? If the angle of the harness doesnt matter, this bar is the way to go!

I believe Schroth states anywhere from horizontal to 20 degrees down from horizontal is within their specs. I'm sure all the harness manufacturers publish specs. Anyway, it depends on the person and seat as well...

I have made 5 of them. I don't know the market demand for these though. Also, I'm not a vendor here so I don't think I can sell. That's why i didn't say or advertise in my journal.

Yes, my tech has measured this. Due to the angle of the harness, we have actually made 2 revision. It will fit pretty much any racing seat out there. We have tried Recaro Pole Position, SPG, SPG XL. Of course, I can adjust the mounting location to fit more seats. That shouldn't be any problem.
The most important thing is choosing the right harness so it allows you to run certain angle such as Takada.
