I don’t know if you are putting in just a lap belt or one with shoulder belt also.
The center part is simply drilling holes in the floor and putting backing plates in. The door side I built a bracket for the retractor that bolts to the cab mount bolt. The shoulder attachment goes into the door’s rear box frame. I made a plate with hole drilled in it and a nut welded to one side. I then slipped it into the box frame from the top and lined up the hole/nut on the plate to one I drilled in the door frame. I used a large flat washer on the outside of the boxed frame to spread the load. The plate obviously stops the shoulder attachment from pulling out.
Make sure that the center part of the seat belt is long enough to reach through the seat.
I have installed shoulder belts in both my carryall and PW using the above methods.
