New rear stress bar

[rocco16v at netzero.net (L F)]

I have a logical explanation for that, Brian;
The stresss bar is acting like a guitar string; vibrating in both the verticle and horizontal plane.  Do this long enough and with enough amplitude and the bar could crack at the mount hole.
 With a loud exhaust, EVERYTHING back there vibrates!!!

  Ok.....here is my totally non-engineering backround laymen take on these 
  bars.  The bars on occasion have been known to fail and break.  This says to me 
  that they are absorbing enough forces to cause the bar to fatigue and that they 
  do actually infact work.
