I would think its the same for both...I have an ADDCO that I installed yesterday and it took 15-20 minutes, maybe less. Its simple just can be a ***** to get back to one bolt...

I installed my Progress rear anti sway bar last Friday night. I bought mine through CustomMaxima.com , but I believe it is the same one as the Cattman. Install took about 35 minutes or so, very easy to do. I probably would of been able to put it in quicker if I had done it when there was still some daylight. I bought it for $110 dollars, shipping included. Great mod, I am very happy with it.

I keep on reading about the emergency brake bolt needs to be remove and put back on. I am concern about not putting to back correctly. A few people had to sand down some corners to make it fit. I don’t know what that is all about. It sounds scary. Well did you guys cut any corners and how is the emergency brake.

I didn't disconnect any brakelines...it works fine i just had to maneuver(sp) around the line which wasn't hard at all. I didnt have to sand anything either. It was very very very very simple and very very very straight forward.

I did not have to take off the emergency brake bolts. I moved the brackets just enough with a socket extension to put the RSB brackets in place. You can use a screw driver to do this, I just used the socket extension because it has no sharp edges. Very simple to do. The instructions that came with my Progress bar where very good. I opted to use the car ramps instead of jacking up the car though, this was the only thing that I did differently.

I have a 99 SE and I had to remove a bolt that held down my ABS cable to install my Addco RSB. Did that about 3 years ago and no probs to this day. The difference of having a RSB and not having one is like day and night. I don't see why Nissan doesn't make it a standard part on the Maxima. Go figure.
