Anyone know what happened? Why did they close the doors. Tried to call them for some wheels for my 77’ and the number was disconnected and summit &jegs doesnt sell them anymore.
 
I read on FB the other day that they closed up. I think someone suggested checking with US Wheel for Bart style wheels.
 
Yeah that’s too bad, I like the set I have on my blazer. Never like to see anyone go under.
 
And, like everything else, the value of used Bart's is rising fast. :doah:

I own a set of Bart Super Trucker 15-in 8 lug wheels and I can tell you they're the most out of round Wheels I've ever owned.
I tried to get my 37" Toyos balanced on them and my buddy at the tire shop just laughed at me. IMG_20220527_135827025.jpg
That being said they're pretty damn thick and tough. And I like the way they look.
I would believe they went under because of the quality control issues they were having. One of my rims came out of the box with a faulty weld and held no Air.
 
Seat belt , tell the belt the door is closed.
Do you have a pic of what goes there. My seat belt retactor(not sure if that’s what it’s called )doesn’t have anything that goes to that hole. Nothing is original on this truck. And I am putting some 80’s power window/lock doors on it.

Here is a link to a discussion on the switch in the k5’s and I would imagine it works similar to those.
