Instructions:
- Park the vehicle on a level surface and ensure the ignition is off. Move seats to access mounting points; remove the seat if necessary to reach bolts safely.
- Locate existing seat belt mounting hardware. Spray penetrating oil on corroded fasteners and allow it to soak if removal is difficult.
- Carefully remove old bolts, nuts and washers. Inspect mounting holes, threads and surrounding sheet metal for damage or rust.
- Clean bolt holes and threads with a wire brush or thread chaser. Repair or treat any rusted metal before installing new hardware.
- Position the seat belt bracket and install the new bolts, washers and nuts from the kit by hand to ensure proper thread engagement.
- Apply anti-seize or the appropriate thread locker per factory recommendations, then tighten fasteners evenly.
- Torque all bolts to the factory-specified values (consult the 1966 Ford Thunderbird service manual for exact specs) using a calibrated torque wrench.
- Cycle the seat belts several times and perform a firm pull test to confirm secure attachment. Recheck torque after initial use and periodically during the first month of driving.
