Thanks everyone. Looks like I won't be adding lights Haha.

I did look it up online and found some info on it. I was just asking for some input to see what other people like to use or recommend. Thanks for your input :yawn::yawn::yawn:

Yes it is the same motor as my other thread...

Anybody here installed a LED lightbar on their kart? My brother in law works at Autozone and can get a decent deal on some LED bars & those small LED cubes. Was thinking of throwing one on the kart. Anybody ever done this? Can this be done on a 5hp B&S electronic ignition motor? If so, how...

Wondering what the best oil to use for this engine would be? I'm going to change the oil this weekend and not sure what to pick up. From what I've read, 10w30. Would that be the best to throw in it? (Also, is there a certain plug that is better than others? Or would the champion spark plug...

I'll have to check the steering next time I take it out for a ride.

Nothing is bent or out of place. All seems to be in perfect condition. I was on youtube and searched "thunder kart" and found a video with a kart just like mine. I took a screen shot of the steering of that kart. It looks to be in the exact same configuration as mine even with the steering plate...

I looked into crossing the steering links. I noticed I might run into a problem doing that. If you look at where the steering/tie rods bolt onto the steering arm plate they are really close to the front bar/bumper. They are about 1/4" - 1/2" from hitting. If I were to put one of the steering...

Hahaha ok, got it!

Dang, that is a sweet jeep! Great job!

Only thing is my daughter is 7. I took a test ride on it last night before buying and that thing was pulling me pretty good at 220lbs. It would catch speed pretty quickly and I didn;t even open it up all the way, it was too dark. I didn't let her take a test ride last night because it was...

I didn't notice any stickers/decals on it. I picked it up last night and just gave it a quick once over. I'll check later today when I get out work. ---------- Post added at 08:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ---------- How would I go about correcting this? Could you possibly...

How's it going everyone? I just picked up a Kart for my daughter today. Would like to see if anybody could help ID it, or if it's a home made frame? First ever Kart so not too familiar on how to work on them. It has a 5hp craftsman engine (made my B&S) and would like to slow this thing down for...

Here's pic of the kart. Any info on what the make would be on this frame? ---------- Post added at 09:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------

New guy here! I've been considering buying a kart for my daughter for the last 7-8 months. I've finally found one that fits the bill/budget. I've looked around this forum for a little bit to check out builds and such, and now decided to join. My daughter and I will be going to pick up her kart...
