Has anybody installed the ADDCO RSB? I will be getting one soon, and was curious how it stacks up?

no, thats if you want to make a Rear Strut Tower Brace. this is different. these are sway bars. the car comes with sway bars on it. these aftermarket ones are just much befier and work way better.

what type change do they give you? do they keep your rear end from swaying left and right, or from skiding out, or what? who knows, i might just sell the RSB.

Put it on, drive it around the block, do some high speed corners. You'll think you were driving a different car. Deffinatly don't sell it, you won't want to after you put it on.

I search, but sometimes it takes too long or the server hangs. I'll be easier when the new server goes up. It was just faster to post

They are good quality, kinda hard to make a sh!tty one, it's just a steel bar with two bends in it.

Okay, I've read a lot about the RSB and its benefits. How much difference is there between just the rear and the front/rear? If it makes a big difference, then I'll try to get both. Does ADDCO sell a front one or is it just ST? Also, if I don't have a carjack, how easy would it be for me to install them? Thanks a bunch.

addco only has rear. you don't put the car up on jackstands to install the RSB. you can use ramps or have the car flat on the ground. my driveway has a slight incline from the garage so it was fine there. i just blocked the wheels to be safe. you'll need sockets and wrenches. 12mm and 14mm i think.
