Flex under load won't be a problem on a Regal with the dogbone mounts up front.

On a 2k+ if you want to do this, you'll almost certainly have to retro to the solid front mount.

This might be straying a little far...

Has anyone measured the average or approximate flex we can expect?

I think someone asked that question and it was indicated that you could on yours.
