For the neck rub (not in a good way), I've seen people who do long

shoulder strap. I bet you could find something in an auto-supply
store.

Years ago I installed the BAS shoulder harnesses in my Skyhawk. They
came with anti chafe attachments for this reason that were velcroed
around the nylon belts. I bet one could make something like that out of
fleece or other soft material.


Ross, Morris, et al.

When I was flying the warrior with the single shoulder harness (as in
a car), I had one of the fleece, slip-on-clamp-with-velcro from my
local discount store. Now in the cherokee, I have after-market
Y-shoulder harness. (OEM, TSO, STC, etc) I haven't found anything
that will work. Altho, now that you bring up the fleece gadget, I
bet I could get a couple pieces of fleece and sew them into a Y,
then add a velcro closure (so that it's not permanently attached
to the aircraft and require all sorts of paperwork and signatures
altho I could claim it was "owner-fabricated"...true?)




My things are just around the two shoulder straps from the "Y". They do
not include the "Y". The are two flat pieces the roll up into a cylinder
and close with the velcro. They slide up and down and position where you
need them. I add velcro to duct tape and WD-40 as useful items.
