I have the Jegster loop in my Z.I had to remove both front seats and pull up the carpet so when I drilled for the loop I wouldn't drill through it.Then it is just a matter of unbolting the driveshaft,slide the loop on,drill the holes(make sure loop is within 6" of front u-joint),bolt it in,bolt the driveshaft back in,reinstall seats and go.

Lets hope you bought the third gen model. It's designed to go around the torque arm. The generic version doesn't.

As mentioned above, you need to remove the seats and carpet to drill the holes in the floor. Although it's not hard to install, it just takes a lot of time to do.
