Wanting to fix 2 issues with my 2006 Gen4 so looking for ideas and pics please. 1. How to fix the steering wobble, perhaps fabricating longer tube off existing column. 2. What is used to secure the gas pedal line on metal plate (not zip ties as I have shown).

If your going to be participating in the group photo and want to be parked with your group for the photo please do not go down to the staging area without your group. I would ask that you all leave the registration area as a group, head to the top of the ridge and you will be sent down together. Follow the flagger instructions. we will be at the top and bottom of the site.

Curious if anyone has driven a Funco with coilovers instead of airbags and can give a comparison between the two.

Figured I would do a quick update on the 2017 sand sport super show car I picked up thought I would just do a hood and front enclosed with Jason over at Next level MOTORSPORTS and a wrapped vinyl dash then decided I can’t stand a all blue car and would change the panels to white but got the car back together and the blue arms and beadlocks I could not make myself like them still blue so now I had to have the arms off to be done in gloss black and update to the new OMF funco billet wheels and add a Wetsounds stealth 10 sounds bar with 10 inch sub at the same time I’m hoping to have it back together the week before vets

The a arm bushings on my gen2 are pretty hammered, and I’m sure the bag perch bushings are too. As you all know they are not common size. @Grant@Funco are you guys able to make a set, or do you happen to have the specs tucked away somewhere? If not, Is there anyone near San Diego that would be able to make me a new set out of Delrin or polyurethane? TIA

Hey guys, Went to do my routine check through my car before my next trip and noticed a few things needing attention... One of which is my Steering rack is starting to leak. From my understanding its from a Ford Mustang, but the markings on it are not matching any part numbers for the auto parts stores... Would anyone know the part number? Hoping to have this and a few things done in time for the Regatta. Thanks in advance for any help

Ok, I’ve had a Gen 3 all these years. Just got a Gen 4 and it’s time to take things apart. Got the trailing arms off, had to use a sawzall as two of the bolts had welded themselves to the bushings. On to the Cv’s. Got them out, soaked in diesel, and wiped down. Not super impressed with how they look, but I may be able to squeeze another season out of them before replacing. The hubs; got most of it apart. Got the CV body out and the bearing that it goes onto it. got the inner piece that it bolts to out and wiped down as well. Pulled the 5 bolts that hold the housing to the trailing arm and thought maybe it’d just pop out like everything …

This chassis was well used, its #02 and some one got a lot of dune time and forgot to tighten the suspension bolts regularly. There was a lot of wear and you can see signs of repair to the pivots. So we decide to cut them all off and put brand new Funco pivots back. We added a tube here and there for some added strength. The car is getting a rolled roof like the Gen 6, new one piece skid plate, inside floors front & rear, Rancho went through the 2D, Outfront is doing an inspection and some basic maintenance on the C&G Subi, brand new Gray Area front and rear hubs, all new tires, Jason at Next Level is doing the sheet metal - 3D roof, noise cover, full dash, inside…

Hello Funco Family! I have recently bought my first Gen 4 subi powered 2D Funco and for the most part absolutely love it. Car turns like no other and the 2.5 Subaru motor is legit quick. Car is a blast to drive. Car has the 14.50 dunesports in the rear and shaved 33 Baja pros in front. Running 38 PSI in front bags and 42 PSI in rear bags Here are my complaints: 1) Harsh ride over ruts left by other vehicles. Suspension feels stiff and beats me up. After 3 days in the dunes my neck is sore from whiplash. 2) Car doesn't land very smoothly from medium size jumps. Larger jumps and car will bottom out. Again, suspension feels stiff or harsh and real…

Need some guidance / Pictures for changing out a 2d to a S4/S5 Transaxle. I reached to to @onanysunday and asked him for pictures of his conversion that were lost in the change over. He suggested that I ask on here so that he could re-share them with everyone if others are in need.

Hello, I am wondering what you would recommend for a direct replacement for my turn brake (if there is one available). I am also looking at replacing the brake and clutch assembly while I’m at it. The turn brake and pedal assembly are the original ones that came from Funco. Thanks for any and all suggestions, and happy holidays.

I have the 2d out of my Gen 4 for service and I brought home a S4 mock up from McMullen out here in Phoenix. This Gen 4 is an original V8 2d 930 car and I wanted to see if the S would fit. Here is a photo of why it doesn’t fit basically the back tube would have to be cut out of the car. I am not sure what the difference between this car and an original S4 car is but they are different. If that tube wasn’t there. The S would literally bolt into the car. Hopefully someone finds this helpful.
