if you order from custommaxima.com it will come with the polyurethane bushings. im not sure if you order it some somewhere else.

yes it will fit your car. im not sure if they're the same from 95-2003 but it will definitely fit if you order a 2000/2001 RSB.

I ordered my ADDCO Rear Sway Bar from CustomMaxima.com and they are having a LOT of problems with sending people the right install hardwares. They were very nice on helping me getting the right parts, unfortunitly I had to return it and get my full refund back, b/c ADDCO Corp was at fault for not sending them the right hardwares, I didn't want to deal with it so once I get my check back I am going for Stillen Rear Sway Bar instead. Little more expansive but the QUALITY is definitly there, and trouble free installment.

P.S. I am speaking from my personal experience, maybe you be luckier than I am.

I had no problems with my Addco RSB. I ordered it through Cattman and the bushings where polyurethane.

Black poly's here. No problems with fit or finish except that little fiasco re: getting the wrong U bolts. (which Addco fixed).

You can also try the new bars from Cattman, IIRC they're being made by a new company and seems to look a lot better than the Addco.
I was just makin sure mine were poly also. I have seen some with redish color bushing and wasn't sure what the difference was. I got mine from the cattman GD a while back.

well i missed out on the group deal, but a few 5th gen guys told me problems with the Addco. I think they tried to fit 4th gen ones on to a fifth gen...

I cant bear with modifying things to fit.. Progress even has a different part # for 4th gens and 5th gens...

I think i wil get that instead..

...but were you also missing the spacer for the emergency brake cables? I ended up rigging up something from Home Depot with 2 1/2" #10 screws and bolts.

I don't think the spacer is part of the kit. A little improvisation like you mention is all it takes...
