ADDCO rear anti-sway bars are one of my favorite Maxima parts because they work so well without having a negative impact on the car. Relatively easy to install, and always affordable but even moreso now.

I've got a whole heap of ADDCO rear anti-sway bars on hand with more on the way. These fit all 1995-2003 Maximas and are the gold-tone, zinc chromate plated bars. Bullet-proof against corrosion in a nice gold-tone finish, and they take a coat of paint well.

$115 while supplies last, shipped by ground anywhere in the continental 48 states. This is the last time we can do a deal at this price, ADDCO is raising their prices 10% on everything ordered after July 1.

If you want it shipped more quickly, or sent to Alaska, Hawaii or Canada (or elsewhere), I will credit $15 towards those shipping costs. Call 800.795.1513 to order and talk to a real live person, 8-5MST, M-F.

Brian, any chance of 3rd gen as well?

 

I've been looking for this deal for a while now. I just missed the last one. I waited till the last minute and all were gone. I would suggest to all who missed the first deal sign up or call asap. They sell quick. I've searched all over even Addco and $115 is rock bottom. This even includes shipping. YEA!!!

 

I just thought that I would add that this is a really good price!

 

WOOHOOHOO! I got one! I got one!

I kept on missing out on these awesome GDs, but I finally nailed'em!

Got this deal AND the GD on the Unorthodox UD pulley!!!!!


WOOHOOHOO!

 

You're not the only one. I've got one coming my way too!

 

Can you ship USPS intead of UPS, cause UPS kills us canadians with duties once its up here. I dont wanna pay another 50 dollars, just to get my package

 

Yup same UDP and RSB. Not a bad way to spend $290.

 

Not to cause an echo in here... But no 3rd gen?

 

Yeah, how about including third gens

 

We could ship USPS by special request, but all you have to pay is GST and PST, no import duties on anything we sell that is made in North America (and almost everything we sell is).

Also keep in mind that when it goes this way, there is no tracking number. If it doesn't arrive, no one knows where it is. We really don't like to ship USPS for that reason.

got any left??? plz say yes..i want one

 

I'm sorry, but I just don't sell enough gen3 ADDCO bars to buy them in quantities that allow me to sell them at $115 shipped. In fact, I hardly sell any at all.

I'm kind of hesitant to push the ADDCO GEN3 bars for a couple of reasons. Their instructions for this application are REALLY horrible, actually labelled for a GM mid-size sedan, and I've never installed one. [The instructions for the 1995-2003 bars are somewhat cryptic, but much better than the gen3's.] If someone was willing to contribute a decent installation instruction set, I'd be somewhat more inclined to promote the gen3 ADDCO RSBs (I'd repay the favor).

Another drawback that affects ADDCO and other brands of aftermarket RSBs on the gen3 (only) is that the trailing links are not robustly secured to the underside of the car and the larger swaybars can rip them from the car if pushed hard. Those can be reinforced (most people don't have any problems and won't need to) and the issue is in no way unique to the ADDCO RSB, so I don't see this as a barrier to selling them, just something to let people know about.

No problem, there are more in the pipeline that should be here in a few days. The sale price will remain in effect. Just call in your order (800.759.9920) to make sure you're in line for the next batch and we'll charge your CC when it ships.

hey i just ordered mine earlier today...and the girl that helped me was very nice...just wondering when do you expect to have them and when do u think i will be receiving mine??? thanks

 

I guess I'll have to go used then

I am willing to contribute a full installation write-up.

Thanks Brian.

 

It was waiting for me at my front door when I got home...

Went inside, changed, and under the car I went!

37 minutes later ( air tools rule!), I was done...

A quick spin around the block told me that this should have been done a long, long time ago.

Thanks, Brian!
Awesome deal.

 

I could do a write-up. But I have to get one first...

 

how good r these compared to Stillen ones? or r u just paying a lot more for the Stillen name?

Ordered mine on Monday! Have to wait though, the're out til Wed. Can't wait!!! We have a powder paint system at work, so I need to decide what color. Black texture, red, or blue? Leaning toward black cuz my car is black.

 

if you paint the sway bar what type of paint are you supposed to use?

i plan on ordering one when i get back in town in about a week...i hope its still goin on

 

still got some left?

 

I installed mine yesterday, it seem to bolt up fine, a little tight on the square u-bolts though... I put the forwardmost bushings about an inch from the end of hte bar.

To be honest, I cant tell a difference really! It feels slightly more neutral in 50+ corners, but definitely not to the extent that some people record here. Should I move those bushings back a couple inches to the bends?

 

The closer it is to the middle the less pronounced the effects of it are. Definitely try moving it outwards.

 

i've ordered from the USA before and had the seller send it USPS - Global Express Mail (EMS). this option includes insurance and they give you a tracking number that can be traced on the USPS website.

when the package crosses the border, it is handled by Purolator and can be traced through them too with the same tracking number.

in order to alleviate the customs charges and GST and PST, it helps if the shipper declares the item a "Gift" with a "value under $30"

hope this helps any fellow Canuckle-heads north of the 49th

 

^^nice info for us Canadians
is it only the USPS EMS that supplies you with a tracking number?

 

EMS+big box = shipping price

 

Anymore RSB's left?

 

yeah anymore left?

 

i wana know the same thing and where do i send the money order

 

Still waiting for mine. Look at the original post, the ordering info is there.

 

Have you guys tried calling? All the info is in the first page of this thread.

 

Anyone know if any are left?? I'm not getting any of my e-mails to this guy returned.

 

Can someone tell me does the strut bar take away the somewhat luxery ride of the maxima? I am looking to improve upon the smoothness of my rid and I am wondering whether the RSB has anything to do with enhancing this? If not what is a mod that will help to make a max ride more like a 7 series bmw or a jaguar if anything?

 

I called up Cattman. The RSB is on back-order.

DR0832, the RSB will only help minimize the sway when going through hard turns. As far as making it ride like a BMW 7 series, the Max has a long way to go. Primarily one would have to balance the weight from front to back.

 

How would one balance the weight?

 

Well, the Max is probably in a 64-36 configuration (or something close to that) as opposed to near 50-50 for a typical RWD car.

Given those numbers, you could get a full-tank of gas and put every possible tool you have in your shed in the trunk to get more weight back there

Add a good set of struts, springs and an FSTB and you should be okay. Still not close to the handling and ride characteristics of a 7-series but at least you're getting there.

 

brian, how easy/hard is the install on a 4th generation maxima(97)

 

What struts, springs combo do you suggest to get a similar ride. Smooth!!!!!!

 

Installed my bar on Sunday. It was a very easy job. Took under an hour to install. What a difference the bar made in the corners. If you are thinking about buying this rear sway bar, you will not be disappointed.
