That looks nice, but isn't the loop supposed to be farther back from the U-joint?  
It might meet the rules, but I think a better location would be slightly to the rear, if with a u joint failure the driveshaft whips around, flexes a bit, it will figure a way to slip out and then it will be like having no loop at all.Should be an easy adjustment for future installations, or is it adjustable, can't quite make out that detail. What do the 2 6" bolted plates in the rear attach to? The frame connectors and/or a bolted in roll bar?
Nice car, nice & easy? installation, but seems to have a few compromises in the design IMO.
For many years I have asked can anybody explain with data what exact forces the subframe connectors resist? Bending, torsion, compression, tension, and in what directions/combinations, because that knowledge will much clearer define the actual design of the actual subframe connector, and still no answer.
