I finished all of the fabrication and the Kart is up and running! I moved the sprocket to the left side, installed the engine mount, put the engine in and put on a new chain and a throttle cable.
The kids had a blast on it all weekend now I need to tighten the chain back up because it stretched...
That's how I have my mount mocked up, I'm just waiting to get the sprocket so I know exactly the location it needs to be at. You did some nice work on that!
Yes, any pointers and ideas are greatly appreciated. This forum has been a big help for my first Kart project. I have done a lot of motorcycle and car projects but this is my first go kart.
Success!
I was able to flip the axle with no problem. Now I will be able to use the engine setup that came with the Kart once I make a mount for it in the center of the engine compartment. I just need to order my rear sprocket before I can finish installing the axle.

I just picked up the yerf dog go Kart that I believe it had a 150cc engine originally. I don't have the original engine but I am curious if anyone has done a engine swap in this make of Yerf dog because the sprocket is on the right hand side.
They were trying to use a predator engine with it...
