A seat belt restraint system includes a dual level load limiting belt retractor that has a high level load limit and a low level load limit resisting paying-out the belt when the belt retractor is locked. The belt retractor includes an auxiliary load limit mechanism for assisting in the pay-out resistance when operation is changed from the high level load limit to the low level load limit.

A seat belt restraint system includes a dual level load limiting belt retractor that has a high level load limit and a low level load limit resisting paying-out the belt when the belt retractor is locked. The belt retractor includes a mechanical load switch mechanism that is responsive to the length of belt that is payed out of the belt retractor to switch from a low level load limit to a high level load limit.
