Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a convention out there that torsional stiffness should be at least 4 times roll stiffness? I'll try to find that number, prolly a Carrol Smith recommendation.
Anyway, our chassis was insanely stiff (5000 ft.lbs/deg.) and we're going to try to lose some weight. And yes, out number was accurate. The deflection loads were applied the same way the suspension loads would go.
