It wasn't my doing haha. From the looks of things, some stuff has been modified. Different engine, some welding took place, the engine is shot.

Anyone know who made it? It has midnight express on it but I can't find anything else.

I got a new chain from GoPowerSports. I was curious, does anyone clean and lubricate it right out of the bag, or just slap it on the go kart? I noticed it has a light film which I assume is to keep it from rusting

I'm looking to get new shocks for my Yerf-Dog 3202, the stock shocks are 12" eye to eye. I don't think that it will be much suspension with a 225lb guy sitting in it. I was looking to see what people have tried and what works. Shocks for front and rear

Be a pain to work with all the washers but it'll work. ---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ---------- It does come with a lock collar, that's what I was thinking originally is to do as you described. Figured I'd ask and made sure I was thinking right.

Then why does GoPowerSports have an option for those wheels to go with that axle? So I'll have to get a new set of wheels and tires. Terribly inconvenient

Got a new axle kit from GoPowerSports, everything installed fine, save for the wheels. It's a 1" axle, the bore on the wheels is 1", has a locking collar to keep the wheels from sliding in. My question is, how far from the outside of the axle do you install the locking collar?

Awesome. I did some research on their website, I believe it's a 3202. I'm missing the roll cage is all. Well, I have parts of the roll cage

I thought it looked like a Yerf-Dog 3202. It looks production made

Hey folks, picked up a go kart this morning. Co-worker mentioned it and I asked if I could come look at it. It's in a little rough shape but a good frame, nonetheless. It had a roll cage but the cage has been broken off. I can't find an ID tag anywhere, it has a Tecumseh Power Sport 6hp...

That's what I was thinking, I want to modify an electric golf cart to an engine powered one. But it's been sitting outside for probably a decade

That ain't much fun though

Anyone know where to find a 200-400cc engine with a transmission? The only thing I can think of is find a wrecked four wheeler or something. I'd like to have a transmission with reverse, I have plans to build a shifter cart and a few other projects

I'm going to beat the **** out of it. 16 gauge is a little thin, I can weld but I'm sure I'll be blowing holes through the tubing. I'll consider going a light gauge maybe to 14.

Sounds like you got it figured out. I plan on driving it everywhere I go so I don't worry about putting it in a pickup. I'll be using 1" square tubing, 11 gauge which if I recall is about 1/8" thick. Be adding gussets in all corners to give it strength but keep the weight down. I haven't...
