How hard is it to install a rear sway bar? Also what tools are needed?
How expensive would it be to have installed? any idea?

 

DR0832, H&R's/Maxspeed's are your best bet for a smoother ride. Couple it with adjustable struts like the Modified AGX so you can dial-in your ride comfort. A lot of people would say Eibach+Tokico has a very nice ride but like everything in this case, the quality is subjective.

Try asking some of the .Org people in your area with similar set-ups to give you a test ride.

As far as RSB's go. The installation will vary from 30 minutes to a couple of hours depending on how fast you work. You'll need an 11mm wrench and a set of pliers or whatever you have to hold down the nuts while you tighten the bolts.

Of course you'll need jacks/lifts/stands or you'll just have to work in a tighter space w/o those.

 

DR0832; All that I used was a set of ramps, #10 socket to remove/reinstall e-brake harness tab(only 2 bolts) and #14 deep socket to tighten 8 bolts that fasten sway bar onto car.
If you had a shop install, I don't think they would charge any more then 1 hours labor.
Good luck.

 

What type of drop would I get with the Modified AGX and H&R/Maxspeed? Also wheres a cheap place to get these?

 

Hey......great deal.....I want one........please contact me so i can buy one!!!!!

 

i want in for the addco rsb's. email me at maximamoose@hotmail.com, or pm me

 

well, if you guys would just read the first post on this thread you wouldn't have to wait until someone contacts you

 

i called and ordered them today, but they told me that they were back-ordered
they said something about them being gold-colored

 

when will they going to have it in stock then?

 

Zinc-chromate plated.

 

yeah, that ****

 

I called and spoke with Lori. Ordered the RSB, which is currently on backorder, but it supposed to come in sometime this week. I can't wait!

 

Sorry for not lookin in on this more regularly, but just so everything's clear, here's what's going on.

The depth of demand for these things never fails to amaze me -- our first batch zoomed out the door in a week and so we've been waiting for the follow-up shipment, which is supposed to arrive by the end of this week (i.e. on of before Friday, August 2).

Deal is still on, we expect to be able to satisfy all backorders, so go ahead and order to guarantee that you'll get a bar at this price; we don't charge your credit card until we ship.

I gave Lori my phone number and email address when I ordered. Good to hear that we're not charged until you ship. Will we receive an email once it ships, with the tracking number, etc...?

 

I'm not sure about receiving e-mail, i never did. All i knew was that my RSB was waiting for me at the door.

 

Seems like things seldom go better than expected, but that's the case with the ADDCO bars. Wasn't expecting them till Friday, but they arrived today and we are shipping out backorders like mad.

Plenty to go around, bring on the orders!

And, for what its worth, this is very likely to be the last time that Cattman Performance will be able to offer the ADDCO bars at this price.

I'm so glad I still can make it!!
I'm going to order tomorrow and I have not got my ride yet!
Should take delivery tomorrow 2.

 

I just received my RSB today! Well all I gotta say is Cattman is awesome! I ordered on Monday, it was backordered, yet I still got it today! I'm very impressed...if Cattman prices on other products are competitive, I'll definitely do business with them again.

 

anyone know if this RSB will fit on infiniti I35?

 

It will fit.

Triple8, here's a tip on the installation. Put on the trailing arm brackets on first and keep the bar loose at that point. Only after setting that up that you start putting on the rear beam portion.

This will make it easier and you won't have to loosen the brake lines first. I did it the reverse way first (e.g. rear beam then trailing arms) and it took me well over an hour to install. I did it the other way around and it only took me less than 30 minutes.

 

that is what i thought.... so i have ordered it

but one of my friend told me that it wouldn't fit ...

thanks for the confirmation....

 

Tell your friend, I35 = Maxima. Same chassis, same engine, same suspension

 

my friend is still saying that it's not going to fit well....
b/c it's made for maxima only... well i tried to explain to him
it's same underneath..... so we betted $20 hahaha

when i get it i'm going to show how good it fit's and he is going

to pay $20 which will drop my RSB to $95

 

Hey thanks for the advice mike. Much appreciated as always.

Now I noticed that the bushings on my Addco are black, not red like in the "How-To" pics. Does that mean they're rubber instead of urethane?

 

][35, tell your friend. The Maxima everywhere else in the world is the I35 here in the US. So he's basically going against his own statement

T8, now you know my name. What's yours? . Anyhow, as far as the bushings go, some of the urethane one's come in black as well. Mine was black, although i don't really know how to tell between rubber and urethane i did notice that the outer layer was definitely rubber while the inner was of a somewhat different material. Smooth and somewhat shiny. I've had i for a couple of weeks now (Several hundred miles) and so far no squeaks yet.

Btw, ever considered painting it?

 

 

is the deal still on?
im interested in getting one for my 4th gen.
as for canadians, how do we go about ordering? is money order ok?

Dev

 

Should fit just fine, it goes on the '02 Maxima and there are no differences in the main suspension parts.

Very good tip. That's the way I put mine on 3 years ago, and I've never been able to figure out why people needed to to loosen their brake lines. Now I know, cool

Brian

 

Is the GD still on.

 

I was going to end it August 1, but there was about 10 days when I didn't have any, so we'll keep it going a few more days.

Brian

 

Can I still order one?

 

Read the post above yours.

 

So, Cattman...do you know what the bushings are made of? They are really dense, pretty hard, almost like plastic. Black in color.

 

I'm in... I'll be given ya'll a call tomorrow. BTW thanks for the great deal.

 

They are urethane, and sometimes they are red, too.

Brian

 

Cool. I got it on fairly smoothly and quickly with some help, w/o having to remove any lines or anything. So far so good. Thanks!

 

sway bars still 115 shipped?

 

 

Its funny that this is still active as a GD. His newsletter that went out overnight has them listed at $115 for everyone, not just for this GD...
