5th gen RSB, FCAB, FSFB

After 10 years and 100K miles, I’m finally moving on with my Maxima. I’ve done pretty much everything to the Max in term of suspension and handling and I can tell you that Rear Sway Bar, Front Control Arm Brace, and Front Sub Frame Brace are the most noticeable chassis stiffening you can have. The RSB made the car planted and slightly oversteer. The FCAB made the steering more direct and you felt the rood better. It also reduced the torque steer. The sub frame brace stiffened the body quit a bit and reduced the body roll and made the suspension geometry true. This along with poly bushings everything made the day this car enjoyable no more boaty or floaty feels.

The 22MM RSB is Progress with poly bushings (I’m not sure if you can find this anymore). It’s in good condition with no damages. Both FCAB & FSFB are my DIY creation.

The FCAB has a hole that I think was due to I grinded too much for clearance to the exhaust. Both RSB and FCAB were in my car for years (https://maxima.org/forums/5th-genera...s-ltb-diy.html). The FSFB was only mounted for 6 months before I took it off. It’s just too low and I’m afraid that I’m going to bust it or damage other components if I run into things. The FCAB is looking a little beat up. It does reduce your ground clearance a bit ( I’m on stein Htech and KYB). If your car is lowered than HTech spring, I would not recommend installing these two. If you car is stock height, you may get away with both of these installed without worrying the ground clearance. Install at your own risk.

I’m including both FCAB and FSFB for free with the purchase of RSB. Selling AS IS

$150 + shipping.








I’m also selling my Headlight Retrofit as soon as I find a pair of stock ones. Will create separate add for it.
