Used to be able to just search here and find them but obviously that's changed. I put the car on jack stands, pulled the wheels, pulled the trailing arms, then remembered I need to be on the lookout for an enclosed over the summer. So, anybody know the width of a Gen 4 with paddles (Dunesport 14.50)? Feel free to add front tire widths and lengths as well as I'm sure the question will be asked in the future.

Some of you may remember my last run of Cars. Last season was 4 different Funco's for me. Pretty much had a car on my flatbed every trip, coming or going from camp or storage. I ended up with a car I have always wanted and one I felt would check all my boxes after owning a newer G52 and an early light Hustler. The first trip with the car sealed the deal and it was smiles for miles. Second day with the car was unfortunate. Dogs in third gear were gone and i could not keep it in third without it popping out under load. Finished the season in a camp chair with ideas running thru my head. Decided I wanted the best of several worlds and to take what I liked it all those…

The stock uniballs for the rear suspension are exposed and go away quickly if you put a lot of miles on your car. This was maybe 3 seasons. Outfront John sells a set of 8 seals that pop in there. I put a little grease in there and it appears it should work just like a wheel bearing seal. With much less movement. I believe they will last MUCH longer without getting exposed.

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 …

I have never done a build thread and since everything got wiped out I thought I would do one on our current project. I picked up this car as a spare last season and the project started almost immediately and has been ongoing. Car started out as a 4 seat Gen 4 with 934’s, S5S and a Danzio Brutus motor. In my infinite wisdom I decided to put a 4.5 liter whipple on my 11:1 stroker motor and put the boost at 14 psi on E85. I took it to Turnkey and then Funco to cram the whipple in the car. Grant told me it was a bad idea but if we are going to do it let’s do it right. So we took the back seats out and put the big tank and the gen 6 radiator in the car. He then said …
