the retractor has to be in the correct position for the seat belt to come out. sounds like it's off some and is locked.

no. if you take the retractor out, and flip it upside down, it will lock and won't release until it's back in it's normal position. if it's bolted in the truck, it should be unlocked until you jerk quickly on it.

spent about 30 minutes trying to get the seatbelt to feed out and its still locked up. im thinking about taking it to ford just to see if they can get it to feed out but im guessing there going to try and charge me up the ass to do that
