There is a lot of information on the popular rides at Universal and plus size people, including using the test seats outside. We are not big on the roller coasters or rides with a lot of twists and turns. Will probably do more of the 3D rides and shows. Are there any that we should definitely avoid. My husband carries most of his weight around the stomach and me in the bust. I am worried about the lap bars not clicking in correctly.

While I can't answer your questions, I'd recommend posting this in the Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure forum (linked below) as opposed to the Trip Reports forum as that forum has more of the Q&A threads about the parks and attractions. Also there have been a lot of similar threads/questions about your topic you can do a forum search for answers

Edit: Perhaps @macraven can move this thread for you to that forum
 
Yes I can move the thread and it may help the poster receive more replies.

Just need a request by the poster
 

Spouse is on the mid tier of pooh sized, maybe about 240 lbs, not very tall, now all stomach and he could do everything we tried to ride but I know it wasn't much. We are proud ride cowards. Pammie Plus Parks has a darn good video on youtube about being pooh sized at Universal, DorkyDude also had a good one where he goes over every ride! I think it was the best video I could find. I binged the vids before we went and got the most results by searching "Plus sized universal Orlando". The visuals really helped and it was nice seeing people video the trial seats.

I hope you have a great time in the parks!

Hi! I'm also a busty woman and have not had issues fitting in any of the rides at Universal, with the caveat that I've never ridden Rip Ride Rocket.
 
As far as busty goes, can tell you a short 42DD-44DD has no problems on any rides including all the coasters.
