i was going to make one for mine here at work, so i got a pen, pad, and tape measure and ran out to the parking lot. to my surprise, there really wasnt much to mount a loop to under there. you would damn near have to go frame rail to frame rail with a piece of flat stock, then some larger pipe around your shaft/shafts. there was a sort of huge valley on mine that the shaft runs in between, with only gas tank and bed beside it. nothing strong enough to weld/bolt support to.

it is always a great idea to have a loop though, if your shaft were to let go, or a u-joint give out, it is either going to take out the gas tank or come through the bed.......i would rather neither of those happen to my pretty truck.
