Interesting! Well, it wouldn't hurt to look I suppose! Thanks.

Yeah I looked at some of those live axle rims, but couldn't find 7 inch rims to fit the tires. The other issue, they would have to have set screws in addition to the key. Though not a deal breaker, I can tap them if possible.

Hmph.... yeah I was thinking about that, but can't find rims to fit my tires.

Ok here is my issue with the rims, not so much the tires. The previous owner got these racing hubs, then drilled holes in the rims to fit the hubs. Horrible job doing that I might add. It is ok for now, as the granddaughter will be forced to go slow. However, I do want to have a better...

I ran out of time today to get pics showing the issue with the tires/rims. That will come tomorrow, unless I can run out there real quick. I took it for a test drive and it did well. That engine has a good amount of power for growth. I had the granddaughter sit on my lap to drive as I...

Hahahaha ok if you say so! I'll post pics of the situation I have later today or tomorrow morning. All depending on time. 👍

Well, since this thread is about adjustable pedals, it only seems right to show the finished product. Thanks to William for helping me out with the pedals he made for his grandkids, my granddaughter can now drive her kart by herself. Had to make some modifications for my setup, but it works...

Oh ok, that makes sense. Ya those guys are clowns, but entertaining none the less. Especially for someone like me, who is trying to learn and needs visuals of how to do something. Some info is hard to come by, especially those who know what they are talking about and not some 14yr old doing...

Ahhh gotcha. 👍

Ok so what I'm calling pullys, are actually sheaves? I'll try to remember that. Thanks for the confirmation, much appreciated. 👍

So, in regards to my earlier question about the pullys inner surface being parallel, I came across this video. It's at the 5:11 mark where the guy talks about the pullys surfaces being intentionally offset for their depths? Thoughts appreciated.

Oh nice! Yeah that looks good! Glad the pros approve of my shimming work. Now once I get my 2 piece sprocket centered properly and chain to the right tightness, it will stop throwing the chain off. Lol

Hopefully this works good enough.

Yeah, I'll take some pics here shortly.

Yeah I used a piece of metal between the two inside pulley surfaces to get close to parallel as I could. Thank you for confirming that for me. Now back to work on my other issues. Haha
