I’ve seen various ways to repair this common form of damage. In my case there were no holes in the floor pan that could be used as per some other methods shown on various sites so I came up with this: the reaction forces for the hydraulic Jack are picked up on the subframes.

Looks good, but it could take a bit more if there's been any stretching. You could maybe push a bit in to the "walls" of the flutes & pans with a  bit of tweaking of your formers if it needs it.
