Seat belts and door nuts

[Phungki]

Hello all,
Ever since we purchased our jeep we have been having a blast with it. Can't imagine having gone all this time without one or never not having one. All isssues have been minor easy fixes so far. We have another smallish issue. It's been this way since we bought it and it doesn't come into play much reall. One of our seat belts for the back seat it locked up tight. It's completely retracted so it's not flopping around but it doesn't budge. Anyone familiar with this? Also what size nuts are used for the door pins. Or where can I get the proper ones from? Oddly enough it didn't have them on it when we purchased it. I didn't even notice until we took the door off. It's not a major issue cause the doors tend to just hang in the garage but I thought I would throw it in here
Thank you
Jason

I think everyone on this forum threw away the hinge nuts the first they took the doors off. I actually cut off the thread on the lower hinge to make lining up the pins easier when putting the doors back on.

For the stuck seatbelt, it's likely just gunked up inside. Flushing the mechanism out with WD-40 will likely get it working again. Also realize that our seatbelts lock up when the Jeep is on a slope and the little steel ball you can see here has rolled to the side.

And as said above, no worries about the missing nuts that go on the bottom of all the door hinge pins. Mine haven't been on in nearly 21 years. My TJ has balls but no nuts (on the hinge pins).
