I ordered 4 tires, brake pads, master cyl, ignition switch, and started with the tires. I couldn't put the tires on the wheels because of all the rust I found inside the wheels so I sand blasted them, welded up the rust holes and put some epoxy primer on them. I decided to order 4 inner tubes...

heres that video its about half way though
I thought the same thing but I couldnt find anywhere reasonable so I bought the 10' chain for 30.00 which is enough for 3 chains so thats 10.00 a chain and I'll keep an extra one and master link with the cart. That job is done. Now I'll get back to the seats. I found two 12v winches around the...
A new master cylinder has to be bled then the whole system needs to be bled Harbor fright has a cheap bleeder so one man can do it. all the brakes need to be bled front and back.
I cant believe how much everything costs, Like tires are just as expensive as the ones on my car. I found back tires 22 x 11-8.00 for 38.00 ea.
I've been toying with an idea of using an old 12v winch fabing it up with a sprocket. When you pull the reverse lever the whole unit swings down onto...
I got started on the seats today. The plywood is cut, then I realized it'll need to move up and back so my grand daughter can reach the peddles. I found an old impala seat and took the slider off but it was too wide and needed to be 5 1/2" narrower so I cut that and welded it then I realized...
heres some pics of the chain. It was so stiff I had to pound it to get it to fit in the container to soak it. Ospho is what I soaked it in overnight. after I pulled it out I rinsed it in alcohol then wire wheeled it it was bendable already but would need to be soaked in oil to finish. I could...
I dont think mine has reverse but it will.
Thanks again guys you've been very helpful.
Yesterday I got the rusty chain cleaned up a little when I noticed it was shot so I'll be getting that next.
today I'll be working on the seats it has none so they'll be done from scratch.
I think getting together would be a great idea. my kart still has a ways to go before its ready to ride but riding with others is a lot of fun. Im down. :cheers2:
bought a battery for it today and a bunch of odds and ends.
I took the rusty old chain off and set in in Ospho overnite, tomorrow Ill get that on and adjusted.
I put it on jack stands and sure am glad I did because the back wheels were wobbley and found the big nut that holds the wheel on was...
THATS what I needed its got all kinds of info in there. thank you

One more question, where is a good place to buy parts? I'll need a master cylinder or a rebuild kit. and some brake pads.
Thanks guys thats what I needed to know. I think the motor is made by T mek maybe does that sound right , Ill look.
Today Im making seats for it starting with plywood. Illpost some pics of that.
Now, wheres the battery supposed to be mounted?
As I was working on it yesterday I realized it has a...
I just bought this tomberline 150 and it needs a lot of work but it has a new motor setting in it and I want to start there by getting it running. Its never had oil in it so is there a special break in oil to use? What would be the break in procedure? I thought I might over fill it and let it...
