Its the pendulum lock internally. U have to remove the belt from the jeep and pull the cover. Sometimes u can fix them and sometimes u cant. The issue is if u fix it it may be worn out and lock up again. I would buy a new one of get one from a junk yard.
I was planning on stopping at a junk yard after my finals. How easy is it to remove the cover? I looked at it a little bit yesterday and couldn't think of an easy way to remove it
Pretty easy removal if you use a torch... ask me how I know.. 
My old belts used to do the same thing with catching and jamming up when trying to pull them across. I recently got replacements from Quadratec not that long ago. They are factory direct from Seatbelt Solutions (in FL if I recall) and are top notch quality. $169.99 - 10% DEJA Member disc + free S/H (orders over $75).
For some things like seatbelts, personally I wouldn't trust a JY part and would go brand new. The reason most vehicles are in the JY is due to accidents which would compromise the seatbelt... if they were wearing one. I've seen more than I ever wanted of blood on the inside of junked vehicles b/c people don't wear them....
The covers are rivited on. They are not suppose to be repairable items. U will need a good set of torque bits to get the belts out.
Just dont get the school bus saftey orange ones jeremy got if u get new.

That literally made me LOL! People at work looking at me like I'm crazier than they already thought!!
OP- I had to use a torch to get the bolts out of the tub. That's how the covers got melted on mine... well at different points they were on fire too.

From what I understand. If a vehicle has been in an accident over a certain mph and the seat belts were in use, you are required to replace them with new.
Here are the ones that Quadratec carries... comes as a pair. http://www.quadratec.com/products/14247_08XX_PG.htm
