little bit of headway made. waiting on some parts to modify the exhaust and intake of the new predator 420cc engine I bought. I need these in order to make the engine fit. Put on a light bar, and getting ready to sew the pad covers for the headrests and roll bars. [/URL][/IMG]

Thanks. I know what you mean, I'm rebuilding a carter brothers kart currently. The wheels I used were from bmi karts part #k260081. Tires were from Home Depot 35 ea.

Does anyone happen to have a picture of the axle assembly of a Carter Brothers kart with dual band brakes, 3 bearings, and spacers? It looks to be possibly a 2911-3015 kart according to gopowersports breakdowns. I bought the cart with the axle assemble already off and not sure if I have the...

Thanks for the info. I'm going to keep the predator governor in for now and just get the performance kit from gopowersports. The tecumseh engine runs via pull start, I'll throw it on CL to see if I can get anything for it. I don't think I can sell the Kart. The more I work on it, the more...

Starting to put it back together. I actually found a Carter sprocket. Soon as that arrives, I'll get the axle on given I can get the chain unfrozen. [/URL][/IMG] I bought a 420cc Predator this weekend. HF had a sale and picked it up for under $300. [/URL][/IMG]

well, a little boredom is dangerous, Couldn't help myself but to tear it down and start from scratch, [/URL][/IMG]

Starting to find out the more I inspect, the more issues I'm finding. seems the jackshaft is bent a little. Had to cut it to get it out. I also pulled the engine. There are no markings other than Tecumseh. I believe it's only a 6 hp engine based solely on size compared to a B&S 8hp but I...

Looks like I spoke prematurely on the starter. Hearing the solenoid kick in, just not turning over. I'll mess with it a bit tomorrow, after that, guessing I'll have to pull the engine. It could use a cleaning and a going through. I have a 60 tooth sprocket with a 2" bore and what measures...

Happened to stumble across this cart this morning. Picked it up for $250. Guy said he couldn't find a sprocket for it. I figure I would change the entire rear if I couldn't either. Has a Tecumseh 11hp engine with a torque converter. All the tires hold air, Starter and lights all work...

Well one day prior to the reveal, and I was able to drive the kart down the street. I have a few glitches to work out, but I think my son is going to love it, especially not expecting anything like this. Thanks for the help and I've caught the bug, already looking for another. I think I...

Thank you for the info

Trying to mount the backing plate on my B&S 8hp engine. The rear is hitting the fins on the back of the engine and will not allow my to align the bolt holes. The rear needs to be lifted a fraction of an inch. Is it ok to grind down some of the backing plate that is touching the fins, grind...

thanks for the info, my son is 12 so I will leave it on.

Thanks. Power plant going in tomorrow. wanted to give it a quick tune up prior to putting it back on. I was reading the thread on removing the governor wondering if I need to go that route. Heavy kart, 8hp B&S, any thoughts? There's a guy selling a dingo locally. I went and looked at it...

Got everything bolted up today. Bought a tap an die set and threaded the rod the brake bar attached to. Need to weld the throttle bar and get that put on tomorrow. After some searches, I figured a clutch would not be advantageous so I ordered a torque converter yesterday. Will have to figure...
