Streaker Hubs?

[qtband]

I have a Ken bar streaker sc7 kart. I bought it without any front hubs. At least I think they're supposed to be hubs on the front. Does anyone know for sure, and if so, what kind of hubs are they? It seems a 5/8 bearing wheel doesn't want to fit correctly.

Ken-Bar karts typically had a cast aluminum hub for the front wheels that the split rim wheels bolted to, but you don't have to have that. Use whatever you can get--tubeless tire steel wheels with integrated hubs or whichever. The rear wheel hubs are steel on my S-465 and are keyed to the live axle.

I'm thinking of cutting off the spindle and Welding a new 5/8" bolt on there. It should be easy!

Maybe there’s a burr on the threaded portion preventing a bearing from sliding on? Measure the diameter with a digital caliper or something.

Actually Hellion is right for once! Get some emory cloth stuff and polish those bolts. Bearing bore are held to a purdy tight tolerance. I doesn't take much to stop em.

Let it here by be decreed that on this day the twenty fourth of the eighth month of August in the year Twenty Twentyfive of our Lord, Hellion was right.
