Cool, just hate to see you buy them and get something completely different than you were expecting... I actually used to have a couple solid tires for a spares for my go kart when I was a kid... They came off of old swisher lawn mowers my grandpa had for spare parts... The things you come up...

Will they even except a tube?... My concern is they might be a solid tire?..

I know what he was talking about, that's why I put the dancing banana at the end.. As for the pedal cart, It really serves no purpose other than a toy for my youngest to ride around the driveway... He still loves anything he can pedal or ride... Hasn't graduated to the state of lazy like most...

Well, being the state I live in requires anyone born after 1980 to have a hunters safety course to hunt, it will serve the purpose of my children being legal in the field....:bannana:

That's what I was going to say...:thumbsup:

Weekend got consumed by hunters safety course for my boys...Been sourcing parts to try and save some $$$$ for the important things on this build...A guy I work with is going to bring in some extras he has laying around tomorrow, after that it is ordering new for the major components that I am...

Suggestions for torque convertor set up? The Honda has a 1" output shaft so that means? Going to start out with a live axle and 22x11-8 rears.. This cart will mainly be driven by kids, age 6 to 40+.. I am not a small fella standing 6'4" and weighing in at about 220... I do plan on doing some...

All kidding aside, I love doing these kind of things... I just wonder if it is worth the TIME it takes to try and make something work vs just buying new... Not talking a whole kart, just simple stuff like spindles and rear axle... Honestly, right now I have nothing but time in this build... I...

Oil, these things require OIL?.... Oh no, where do I get that? Is it expensive? What color should I buy?

I joined this sight over others because of the DIY attitude... But I have to ask at what point do you just buy new versus trying to use what you have available... I grew up with a "use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without" family attitude.. I am a true believer in built not bought...

Cleaned the shaft up on my lunch hour... Still a little bit of pitting but it doesn't bother me... Now just have to figure out a way to cut a keyway.. Trying to decide if I should do it right or just hillbilly grind it in?

Really confused on pictures and videos?.. I posted most of this from my phone last night and it shows up properly on my phone... The youtube video is embedded and the pictures of the carb are different?.. Not sure what I am doing wrong?...

Not pretty, but the price was right!!! Much better..

Hmmmmm? Yep, it's 1 inch straight... Just not what I was expecting for threads...
