Damper Extensions for Function & Form Type 2

wondering if anyone has added damper extensions to the function & form type 2's on our g35's. i would love to add the extension instead of lowering shock down to adjust however im noticing that extensions vary between company.

the megans are different from ones tokico makes.


so if anyone has added damper extensions to these please let me know which ones you went with and how they worked out for ya

It's too bad you don't have the reclining rear seats that came on some sedans. All I have to do is recline the seat forward and voila, the ***** are right there.

Yea but fortunately for me I love the styling of the coupe and not the sedan so that's what I went with. once i find some extenders thatll work i just have to reach back there and click so now back on topic, any function & form owners use the extenders or I am gonna have to just try to find one thatll work

Have you tried calling Function Form to see if they have anything that would work?

Waiting on a email back. On their website they list the damper jobs under replacement parts but no extensions.

I remember some talk about them coming out along with electronic dampening, but that was sometime last year... Haven't heard anything since. I'd like some for my set as well.

I know a lot of companies have a simple allen key type adjustment ****, but I'm not sure if the Function Form adjustment ***** are the same.

That's sorta how these are set up

they have the allen type end which is about 5/8 of a inch and then it flares out to a threaded portion which is what keeps it in place. ill try and get a pic up here and maybe we can find someone to compare with the other extensions and ends

If that's the case they probably can get you set up with an adjuster or you may be able to modify an existing adjuster.

I feel like you could at least jb weld a different styles to make them attach to the function form's. That was my plan with mine, but I just never got around to it
