Dee, how is that bar any more rigid?
It appears that the bar's mounting plates are built with two welds that run perpendicular to the load on the bar itself. I would imagine it would not take much for those thin pieces of metal to bend or flex.
I actually run something like that in my car. Very flimsy. All I have to do is loosen the end bolts, turn the bar to tighten, and it starts bending in the mounts. I'm looking for possibly a new bar. The front is pretty tight though. The mounts are parallel to the bar so no bending. I just have to lock the nuts down and it's rigid.
