Let's talk safety for a bit.
The factory Raptor front seat is a fantastic seat. Quality leather, options for heated and cooled seats, comfortable for long highway road trips, short jaunts to the grocery store, and everything in between. The standard three point seat belts are also excellent for these kinds of drives.
However, the desert demands more out of a seat belt. Whoop sections, jumps, and other brutal terrain place stresses and demands on the factory seat belts that they were not engineered for. RPG Offroad has built its reputation on providing increased performance and control over your desert toy, and now it expands to keeping you comfortable and safe while dominating the desert.
The RPG Offroad Harness Bar kit, made for both the SuperCab and SuperCrew Raptors and F-150’s, allow for a four-point harness to be installed for the front seats of the truck. Four-point harnesses have better hold and grip on the driver and co-driver. Other than no more seat belt burns while racing in the desert, this helps hold the driver in a position where he can more comfortably control the vehicle and allows the co-driver to remain in place so he can more comfortably and effectively use the radio, follow the GPS route, and assist the driver. We chose four-point harnesses instead of a five-point harness because installation of five-point harness would require cutting and modification of the factory seat.
The harness bar kits are made with seamless tubing, MIG and TIG welded, and powder coated black to provide a sleek, low profile appearance. The kits are entirely bolt in, so can be removed when not needed. Four mounting holes per side are required for the front half of the harness bar kit install, the rear re-uses factory seat mounting points.
The sport we love and pursue comes with many hazards that we must accept and face every time we drive off the pavement. In case you encounter such a hazard, the harness bar adds an additional level of safety that may make the difference in allowing you to race another day. RPG Offroad wants the sport to be exciting, fun, and safe, and the harness bar is our commitment to safety in racing off-road.

And for the harnesses!
RPG Offroad produced the Harness Bar Kit for the SuperCrew and SuperCab Raptors with the goal of maximizing safety and comfort without sacrificing utility and daily drivability compared to a stock truck. We believe we’ve met and exceeded those goals with the harness bar kit, but to really complete the package, we needed the perfect set of harnesses to match the harness bar kit and the Raptor itself.
MasterCraft Safety exclusively makes these harnesses for RPG Offroad. MasterCraft has been a leader in the design, manufacturing, and sale of safety equipment for off-road and racing applications since 1970, renown for excellence in craftsmanship and technological advances in harness and seat designs. RPG collaborated with MasterCraft to design, produce, and bring you the ultimate four-point harnesses for your Raptor.
The harnesses feature wide, comfort foam padding sewn onto the shoulder straps that have been designed to maximize comfort while securely holding you in place through the most jarring and roughest terrain you conquer with your Raptor.
The lap belts on the harnesses are custom made so that they tighten by pulling the straps inward towards you, instead of outward like most harnesses currently available. This prevents the harness from causing wear and rubbing against your Raptor’s center console. The lap belts also mount to the seats themselves, so that they will move with the seat itself, so they remain comfortable and functional throughout the entire range of the stock seat movement.
These exclusive harnesses complete the RPG Offroad Harness Bar Kit for your Raptor. They maximize comfort and safety, and like every RPG product, are field tested thoroughly.
