    The kicker is trying to find the rare left hand drive. I've driven several right hand drive Wranglers due to my job as a Chrysler dealer tech. I get so turned around, surprised I haven't hurt myself driving one.

    I man I could get a Kei truck. Those can be had and made street legal here. But those are just as expensive as that ranger.

    Been looking for a small truck for myself. Found a 2003 Ford Ranger, FX4 with a 5 speed manual. 103k miles on the clock. Dealer is asking $14,000 for it. What the actual...?

    Channel iron Gokart

    I think, I don't have one so I can't confirm, that the old FL250 Odysee used C-channel for their frames. Square/rectangular tubing would be a way better option.

    In case anyone wanted a welder that does close to all, pretty decent deal for a multi-process welder.

    People use VPNs to access content that may be blocked in their state, region, country, etc and ISPs are trying to prevent people from seeking this information. VPNs do some weird stuff to show you IP in a different state or country. ISPs can see this.

    It's a browser with a built in add and cookie blocker. They even have a VPN. Keep in mind, ISPs are cracking down on VPNs now.

    How do you guys handle project changes and interests? For years I've struggled trying to hone in on a singular project and bounce back and forth over the course of months over like 5 different projects, then do it that way for years. Never actually really starting on a project. Just ends up...

    Some of the misdiagnosed stuff is because advisors like to say, hey I think it's thise problem, or they just want to throw parts at the vehicle.

    Torque converter or clutch

    This might be a good breakdown. OP might use this as a starting point beforehand. https://www.bmikarts.com/Manco-Manuals-Parts-Breakdowns_ep_182-1.html?srsltid=AfmBOooPnCK4D4HLg_ebpLOOtg5adUH5t1U5RGO9ujCPx7mK7x5XKfV-

    If he could find a Manco Deuce, that would be a great contender.

    Torque converter or clutch

    I do recall a guy who modified a Dingo with full suspension and was in the process of dropping a 2 stroke snowmobile engine on it. Might have been a 440, can't recall since Minibuggy net got nuked early last year.

    Torque converter or clutch

    It's a mix of Dingo and AmEx. Probably closer to a stretched AmEx since it lacks the tapered skid plate in the front and "roll" cage.

    Torque converter or clutch

    There's nothing wrong putting a big engine, especially modified on essentially a modern take on a Manco American Express. A Predator 420 lightly modified would be the most some would do. If you do go through with this, highly recommend using a longer key on the axle. Short keys and a lot of...

    Didn't accomplish anything of note over the 3 day weekend. Was going to work on the snowmobile, but couldn't find the motivation. Do need to order spark plug boots and get them installed on the new CDI. But also need to get crowsfoot tools so I can pull the heads and installed new gaskets. Also...

    Kind of surprised that 3d Motorsport Engineering still exists. I know there was a brief moment where the company was going out of business, then got acquired if I recall correctly. They're still doing those manual disc clutches...
