20" would be crazy. They measure right at 14". I don't mind if they are a bit smaller. Thanks for your help!

I just got a small FOX kart that has 145/70-6 tires on it. They are bald. I found some 13x5.00-6 tires really cheap and I was wondering if they would fit my rims? Tire sizing is silly. Thanks.

American Sportworks still has the Driver side arm, but the passenger side is no longer made. And that's the worst one on mine. I just bought a welder though, so I plan on getting crazy on them! I already beefed up the rear end after cracking it last weekend.

So, I just want to say thanks to everyone. I study up on the driven, cleaned it, and now it's working like a champ. I don't know what I was thinking before. Ha! I'm loving my Kart. I bought another even, a Murray Explorer. It's time to buy a welder and start learning to weld!

Yeah, the front panel and dash look awesome!

Thanks so much for the pics. I had pretty much the same idea after looking at mine yesterday. It seems like a plate would help a lot. I'm thinking about changing shocks too, but I want this issue fixed first. Mine are bending up and it's making my tires like this /-\ . It seems like it's...

Awesome. I appreciate everyones help. I'm going to read up on these things. I think I found my new hobby! I'm already looking for more Karts! I really wish I could build one, but I have no welder or skills. Maybe one day. Anyway, I have to leave my Kart at my parents house because my yard...

Well, I guess it's messed up then. It seems like the belt is pulling into the driven when it shouldn't be. I want more torque and less speed. I'm new to torque converters. When I was a kid I just had a centrifugal clutch on my Kart. Now I'm old and large! Haha.

I just got a Manco 710E go kart. I'm having a blast on it, but I noticed both front swing arms are bent. I was going to replace them, but it looks like you can't get them anymore. Has anyone here had that kart and modded or beefed up the original arms? Had new arms made? Looking for...

I just got a Manco 710E Kart. Could I replace my Comet driven with just a regular pulley? I just want it to stay geared down on the driven side and let the torque converter handle the rest. Has anyone done this or have any advice? Thanks.
