Fords online spare parts cataloge literally gives you everything you need to all but auto-generate a FEM mesh of all the primary structures. You don't need to model the entire body/vehicle if you're just measuring torsion/flex/whatever in the primary tub across the mount points. This is bog...

This is an absurd question. Do you know how much any collision testing costs? . I'd bet dollars to donuts Ford did ZERO rollover testing on the raptor for the sole purpose of just testing out the crossbars. Thinking that ANY aftermarket supplier would do such testing for a low volume, low price...
