I just got done installing my RSB. I love it!!
I have some questions though.
On the ends of the bar, did anyone else have trouble fitting the square U-Bolt around the trailing arm?
When I installed it tonight, there was no room for the u-bolt to adjust the tension of the sway-bar-effect by moving forwards. Mine is stuck at the stiffest setting all the way backwards.

I don't know about the u-bolt you asked about...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Stillen RSB is not really adjustbable for the 5th gen. It seems to fit in one spot. The directions even tell you which holes to use for the 5th gen. I think you have more adjustment room on the 4th gens.

I have the ADDCCO RSB and it was a huge pain to install. Those U bolts were a nightmare. I ended up calling ADDCCO and requesting two additional U bolts for the trailing arms beacuse I mangled them up so bad from me trying to get them on the first time.
Thay shipped them pretty quickly and I got them on a bit easier the second time around. I found it easiest to get them on wherever you can, then using a hammer, slide them to the position that you need them to be in.
Also watch the placement of the brackets or you will get the bang sound with every bump in the road.

My friend is pretty car competent, and it took us 3.5 hours to install last night. We started at 10:30, and ended at 2:00am.
Those damn u-bolts are a pain in the ****.
