John C : Will this strap fit the Zeagle Stiletto?Jeffrey S : Yes. I own both the Stiletto and the strap and it works perfectly.Christopher H : I would venture to say yes, it would fit. Wouldn't hurt to call Zeagle and verify though.STEPHEN H : If your Stiletto has a Tri-bar at the lower back, then yes. My BCD is a Stiletto LTD and has this feature. I have the split saddle strap installed. The other ends come with quick disconnect buckles that are attached to short sections of webbing that you attach to the front of the BCD vest with your spare bookscrews. Look for the Tri-bar at the lower back center of the vest. Just a tip..... If you are able to attach the strap at the back, run a medium zip-tie through the sewn tab at the end of the strap ( it will barely squeeze through) and then around the Tri-bar fixing strap just above the Tri-bar. This will keep the strap from slipping through the Tri-bar over time..PATRICK O : I do not know if it will fit the Stiletto, If it has the clips it may
Alfreð S : I was reading the reviews from other that bought this that this product does not come special nuts and bolts to attach it to b.c. is this the case and if so do you have these attachments?Christopher H : The plastic hardware was included with mine. Attach them to the existing grommets on the BC.GUY Z : Alfreð, When I received my Zeagle Split Saddle Strap Assembly for my Ranger BCD it did in fact come with the special nuts and bolts to attachement to my BCD. The split saddle strap was easy to install and really holds the BCD in place with confort. This item should be a standard piece of equipment for this BCD. GuyJON H : I own a 2009 Zeagle Ranger LTD. No additional parts were necessary to install this product on my BC.ALLAN S : It does not come with any nuts and bolts. The Rig attaches to clips at th e bottom of BC.GARY E : The saddle strap assembly uses the 1" plastic tri-bar at the bottom of the vest, on the back. You also have to use two of the accessory holes on the front to attach the clips. I don't recall if they were included with the strap (probably not), but if you are attaching any accessory to the Ranger BC, you need the 2-piece plastic screws to attach them. I don't believe that Leisure Pro stocks them, but any dive shop that sells and/or services Zeagle BCDs should have them. I've seen them online for $2-$5 USD each. I bought the saddle strap because I found that the BCD rode up on my back when I was floating in the water immediately before or after a dive. The strap helps keep the BCD in place.EDWARD T : It comes ready to attach to this BC. No bolt's, nut's, washer's or tool's needed.RON T : U&ses stainles carriage bolts. Rinded tops prevent it from sticking you in the back. measure th right sizre depnding on the tank used. I used the zeagle pony straps betwwen the tanks in the back with a little longer bolt giving me a 40 cft pony with my twin tanks. Heavy but what a great bottom time with nitrox pony.VOLODIMIR K : Easy assembly and a very helpful item. Snap closures. Very easy!!!!PAULETTE H : it should come with the plastic nuts and bolts to attach it to the BC. However they come lose easily and are lost OFTEN. Therefore get extras!MATTHEW M : I do not recall if the strap or the BC already have the needed hardware attached. I did not have to add any extra hardware with mine. The only bolts required are referred o as "sex bolts" they are male and female that screw into each other. They are often mistaken for rivets as your usually see no threads. The previous posted might not have realized it.DEAN H : This thing is great for this bc!! it's simple to hook up turn key if you will. comes with everything you will need. i use it and recommend it! hope that helpsMIKE T : I bought this in 2006 - 2007 and a Zeagle Ranger BC. No special hardware was needed to attach the strap assembly. They may have changed the design since 2007.MATTHEW B : If I recall correctly, you should already have the assembly bolts that you need - they're holding on the cummerbund. You just open those, add the front pieces of the saddle strap, and close everything up again and you're all set.
Shopper : Will this item fit on a Lazer? LeisurePro S : Sorry, no, there really aren't the proper attachment points on the Lazer for this strap. Fits on the Ranger and Tech/heavy duty BCDs only.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?RUSSELL B : I own a Zeagle ranger and it ride up on me a little.Philip J : I have modified a Hawaiian backpack. The split saddle strap helps with stability.NELSON M : back inflation will ride up so crotch straps are a must.

Rated 4 out of 5

Good design overall

I do like it, though I would like thicker straps with bigger buckles. I don't like that the screws are barely ling enough to meet and, sure enough, 2 dives and ones gone. Well, that's what ties are for, right? 0_O

Great addition to the Ranger XLT

It doesn't require any bolts or nuts. All you have to do is use the "screws and nuts" that are already on the Ranger (one each side on the front) the back runs through the "clip" that's already attached to the back of the BC. Mine works great and I love the fact the BC no longer "rides up",no tank sway, plus it's very comfortable. This really should be part of the B.C. as a sales feature!!!

Stopped my tank swag

I have a Zeagle "Ranger" and found that by adding the "Split saddle strap" it stopped my tanks from swaying back and forth. Much more comfortable dive.
