seatbelts in rear seat of a CJ

Install a roll cage from a 92-95 YJ. The cage will bolt to your CJ, you need to figure out a way to attach the new cage to the windshield (using a nutzert or similar). Then you have a place to bolt 3-point belts for the rear passengers. That is the easiest way to get it done. Also see if any of the local 4x4 fab shops can make somethinig for you. Maybe they can add to your current cage, or better yet a full roll cage so the people up front are safe too.

You have to change the roll bar so you have a place to anchor the shoulder belts.

Just a FYI, those are all 'sport' bars, they in no way are a 'cage' or 'roll' bar because they are not tied into the frame.

You 'can' get kits to make the stock sport bar a 'roll' bar, but a 'cage' would need to be built.

I should have mentioned...its for a CJ-5 ..will it work the same way??

Nope. for the CJ-5 go talk to a fab job to make a roll cage. Mike is correct on the difference. Adding a true cage will give you much more protection than a sport bar which is not really intended for a offroad type roll over.

Like Rusted mentions, nope.

If I was going to get a custom one made, I would make sure it would tie into the frame. I did this when I went to a fiberglass body on my CJ7. Basically I put a steel plate under the floor that I bolted the bar down to and made sure it would reach to the frame mount so the front feet of the bar are tagged to the mount. I plan on doing the rear legs the same, but need new tails on my frame first. So I have 'half' a roll bar sort of...

There are companies that make kits to tie the CJ7 bars to the frame like I did. Not hard to fab up once you see how it is done though.

Here is a link to one company and it says it covers CJ5 frame tie ins too.
