    Sourcing Seatbelt tensioner

    Hi
    Recently one of the tensioners on the front passengers seatbelt got smashed to bits (thanks to a heavy object that decided to move) and thus released the spring. Does anyone know if you can purchase just the tensioner piece or do you need to buy the whole seatbelt if so does anyone know where i can get one.
    Thanks
    Josh

    seatbelt tensioner

    Hi Josh,

    What kind of vehicle do you have? If you don't mind used, I might be able to source on from my mechanic's, as he has lots of wrecked Landies in his factory. I'm in Melbourne, but will be up in Palm Cove on the 18th - 29th. Let me know if I can help.

    Cheers,
    Ken

    Hi
    Its a 96 Defender not overly concerned about used at the right price as the belt i have in it is good just has no tensioner so worst case scenario i transfer it across. So if you could look into it for me that would be great
    Cheers
    Josh

    No worries, I plan on going to the mechanic (FWD Motors in Brooklyn) tomorrow. Don't know if he has any Defenders to part out, but I'll see what he has, and let you know.

    Fitted aftermarket to my 130

    Tensioner loked up on one of the front belts on the 130, found an aftermarket complete unit for $45 on special at Repco fitted straight in with no modification and works perfectly. Could probalby dig up the model number if you're interested? Snapper

    I spoke to Winston on the phone today, as he was in and out of the shop. He thought he might have some second hand ones, but was not sure. I will try and see him tomorrow, and if he has some, how much.

    Cheers,
    Ken

    Well was in FWD Motors this morning, and asked about the seatbelt tensioner. Pat (the main mechanic) said that they didn't have any for a Defender. If you need me to try and source the aftermarket one from Repco, let me know. Might have some in stock in Melbourne.

    Cheers,

    Ken

    Thanks for the help will give repco a try up here but if they don't have it up here i might get you to give it a go down there. May save me a bit of ordering time. Just need to find the right repco part number
    Thanks again

    No worries,

    Hey Josh, we are planning on moving to the northern beaches of Cairns in October - December (so son can finish, or almost the year of school). This is why we are heading up to Palm Cove this month, to scout out houses. It would be great to have a catch up once I have the 110 up there, and maybe you could show us some local tracks. Looking forward to the move, and spending more time in the great outdoors.

    Cheers,
    Ken
