My mother in law just traded her 05 for a 09 Lincoln town car. Well the new ones have shorter belts and I can't install Brody's Frontier LBP anymore. UGH!! I tried SBP and it was not tight.
I looked in the car manual and it said LATCH to 48 pounds. Brody is 38# so that is okay but he has a 22 pound car seat. I searched some posts and can't get a real feel for how they decide the wieght the anchor can hold. I read here maybe 65 pound pull test. If this is true we are pushing it with a heavy car seat.
I am going to try a SBP again next visit and try the center belt too. If that is a no go, should just go back to latch for now. He is not 40# yet to just use the seat in booster mode and he turned 4 in April.
I have a decathlon. I could get out of the attic and install for a bit. He is 42.5 inches tall so that won't last too long.
