That was the ticket! Got 2 for 54 cents each. Also stopped at TSC and got 4 bearings (Made in Ohio, that is still in the USA right? :P) for $2.69 each.

Since this entire kart most likely was built in China I think I am safe. 99% of everything is built there now a days. I will stop at Fastenal on way home and see if they can match up the nut for me.

Wow its been a long time since I have been on the site. I picked up a yard kart for my youngest today, traded it for a little Chinese quad I paid $100 for about 7 years ago. Nothing real special but he wanted one instead of the quad and there are a few things it needs. 1. The front wheel...

T-man, I bought a bulk quantity so that I could get them for a lot less that the usual $100 per set I was paying for my karts and just selling all the extras. They are a good brake system. Matthew

Just a little advice on the Torque Converter. I wouldnt go with Comet on a clone like that. I have seen guys that have used them and they are set at a BAD angle in relation to the motor. The rear shaft of the Comet TC will hit the head of the motor so you have to put at a steep angle. Here is...

Speaking as front to back, what are the pros and cons to not having the back and front wheels the same width? Tracking issues? Steering issues? Turning Issues? I have seen some of the off road buggies with wider front ends than rear but they are running mostly live axles. Guess I am just...

That made some really nice bends. Did you the plans from the link you posted to make it? Nice work, that looks REALLY clean!

That is an awesome steering set up. Is that a little rack and pinion??

Did that guy's post how he made the power wheels into a gas powered gone from the Crash? That would be an AWESOME upgrade from the electric... Matthew

We kind of got off on a different subject Redsox, we were talking about this saw. Rage 3

I called about the saw. Will the blade that comes with the saw might get 200 cuts on steel with it. The replacement blade, with shipping is around $75. He says with 1 to 1.250 inch tubing can maybe get 600 cuts out of it. These saws are nothing special, it is the blade, and even the blade is...
