ROll cages or harnesses. The rear seat backs are so low, A shoulder strap is useless. If you're going with the factory style safari seats.

There's not much to do to make them "safe" belts would just be to keep people from flying out on bounces.

To secure them better, I would grab a piece of flat stock and bolt through the body to the flat stock underneath the body.

FOr a roll cage to lessen the chances of being crushed and attach a front shoulder belt to; There are body mounted and frame mounted. Body mounted don't do a whole lot. Frame mounted are much more invasive, expensive and hard to do.

If you're not doing the work yourself, a good 4x4 fab shop (not one of the bolt on places) can give you anything you want. There are no after-market series roll cages available to my knowledge. I found that there used to be one offered. But custom is the way to go now.

Room is so scant in the front of an 88 I would suggest going around the front windshield rather than a roll cage anchored at the door opening.
