Default Driveshaft loop

Just picked up a Lakewood driveshaft loop and was wondering how it should be mounted to the chasis. Mopar magazine says it should be mounted within 6" of the front univ joint to the frame or steel structure.

Is a steel structure the floorpan? Maybe with a special steel plate on the inside of the car?

Any advice appreciated!

yes, you just bolt it to the floor pan. If you want to reinforce ti a little, just put a thick plate across the top of the floor, where the bolts come through.
