If you're talking about the point where the bar hinges with the brackets that get bolted to the chassis, then no, it shouldn't be able to flex once you're done installing the bar. When I received my bar, the brackets were bent inward towards the bar, and I had to loosen the nuts to the hinges to swivel the brackets to a point where I could line it up with where it goes on the chassis. But after you line it all up and bolt it down, you're supposed to tighten up the nuts on those hinges. Basically NOTHING should move once you're done.

Toss up is that your peddal feel gets alot better the tighter the MC is braced (less flex in the Firewall).
