My finished death trap... i mean gokart

[justinmcdevitt]

Well I finished this beast to day and found out that Ice storm = icy grass and when you add that to golf cart tires you get almost no traction :) oh well I had to take it out for a test spin right

any who heres the pics I have some of the build to post but this is what I have for now,
The link to my closed thread of what my first gokart looked like and some pics of the rebuild (http://www.diygokarts.com/vb/showthread.php?t=627)

oh yeah the picture's (notice the Ice)

[justinmcdevitt]

Thank you, and what do you mean by a swing arm in the back (my brain is off for the rest of the day, I just took a final for my welding class)

here is my gocart when i first made the swingarm,it was made from some old snowmobile suspension parts. note:the cart does not look this bad right now its painted and has rollbar etc..

[justinmcdevitt]

thats a good Idea, if you look at the old frame that was the set up that it had when I bought the frame, just didn't have the strut,
so when I rebuilt it I decided to make it solid but I may change it when I want a softer ride

[robertdjung]

cool, good work!

[2or3wheels]

That is cool looking.

[JerryAssburger]

3 Cheers! That thing is cool! The car seat probably cushions any nasty bumps.... I think it's a great job! I'm envious.

[biddie_gibbs]

[JerryAssburger]

Gotta love those Harbor Freight 6.5hp engines.
