Is there a specific size requirement for the tab that welds to the roll cage...the tab that your shoulder harness would bolt to?

I looked in the rule book and didn't see anything but want to make sure.

thanks for any advice!

Great question. Mine shoulder harness is attached to a tap that is about 1/4 inch thick with half inch hole in it. I attach the harness and the back of the seat to it.

You should use the tabs that come with the harness
or do the rap around(I rap around).. you can use a
3/8 bolt grade 5 or higher(I use grade 8 for the floor ones)

I ran a hunk of 3/8 ID by .125 tube through the tube that holds my seat brace and will bolt a shoulder harness tab on each side of this with a 3/8 socket head cap screw , a couple washers and a nylock nut.
You can see the tube in this pic.....pardon my crew chief for hamming it up.
He's pretty excited about the project.

We double them up on our cars welded to the horizontal bar. Kind of hard to see but it is located right behind the upper seat mount bracket.

Not to hi-jack the thread, but does anyone have pics of how they bolted their seat to the cross bar? The rubber bumpers in Vern's pics are pretty cool. Mostly interested in what people are using for plates or washers to spread the force out over the plastic in the seat on the front side.

The harness tabs are bolted to a threaded bung.

Sorry, but I can't resist. Is the air freshener hanging behind the seat for when you pull a HUGE wheelstand?
