Default Recertify/Reweb Seat Belts/Shoulder Harness

Hi, To my untrained eyes my original LS 4 belts look to be in excellent condition. However, they are way past their expiration date.

What do you guys usually do? Replace or Reweb, and if reweb where do you send them? Or just keep them as long as they look good?

Thanks.

Look at http://www.hookerharness.com/aviation.html for re-webbing. Search on Hooker Harness here for comments.

I've had Wag Aero do the belts in my Libelle. Shouldn't be an issue if the
TSO tags are still there.

Hooker Harness did mine last year. Fast and reasonable, and it's worth a laugh to have a "Hooker Harness" tag on the belts.

C&M Marine Aviation Services redid my Discus 2b belts last year and did a great job with wonderful customer service.

For Canadians, GJs Aircraft Belts do good
work quickly for a fair price:

Agree completely, just had mine re-webbed. Our club has used GJ's
several times in the past with great results.

I know getting a Hooker sounds like a laugh to us old buggers, but... How does the re-webbed old hardware compare to a new Schroth 4-point harness for $273.22 or a new 5-point for $289.90?

Delivery was in my experience about two weeks. Your down time between the old and new harness will be counted in minutes.
Takata ask you to provide the Schroth part number.
