Lynn,

I wrote up a big page on chassis stiffening on my blog but pulled it off for now until I finish my ideas.  I still have the entry.  I'm a structural engineer and have discussed it at length with many people, including Goran and others.  Goran's findings are the best source for understanding where to increase torsional rigidity but don't address side loading.
