So like I know different size jackshafts take different pulleys, is it ok if my drive pulley hangs onto the threaded part of the jackshaft by a little? The nut will still thread on all the way. The only issue is that the threaded is thinner but the pulley will only overhang by less than a 1/4...

No I did lack pictures, to a degree. I did also say that I would get them that afternoon and there was already a solution brewing that required no pics. I also did screw up and waste some money already. I can see why they did that given previous history but I already agreed to not buy more parts...

Alright so I figured it out. After finally getting my dad’s sears air compressor to not blow the 15 amp breaker I took an impact to it. Given this picture, I have enough room now that the washer stack is off the completely thread the nut on even with a CVT. The CVT might fit all the way on but I...

Engine is already on, I measured using the shafts as their center is the center of the CVT pulley eventually. Based off that and my 1” of clearance I can say that my belt from the kit will fit. It is coming on Wednesday. What makes a c sprocket a c sprocket?

This message was quite frankly unneeded and a bit rude due to its fundamental flaw in how a forum works. I apologize for this as well.

sorry, typo. I get nut and bolt mixed up sometimes. Please see other post for apology and pictures.

Alright. Slots that allow me to move engine. Random pic that might help. Axle on side with brake rotor. Random Pic that might help. Washer stack. Sprocket on axle. I thought so too, and I couldn’t find a way to get the bolt off unless my dad has a chain wrench but I found this: The nut, NOT...

Crap I didn’t think of that! Is it ok if the pulley overhangs onto the threaded section as long as the bolt can go all the way on? Yes, it is a fat stack of washers. Man pictures are great! Still more to come.

When you say get a 3/4" c sprocket, would that be for the drive or the jackshaft? I really want to do a CVT if you are just talking about changing the jack gearing. They give high accel and speed. When you say homemade CVT drive, what do you mean. I definitely do not have the...

Yes, I see that and like I said in #102 and an earlier one I can't until ~3:30 est. This is not a how to do it question CURRENTLY. We will come to that but right now I want to see my general options and figure out which makes the most sense. I will not buy anything yet. I just want to know what...

Also, I need to get a picture but I think my jackshaft is weird because of the way the keyway works. I don't think it goes all the way through. It almost seems like there is a plate that prevents the CVT/Pulley from going too far on. I might pull it just for pictures. Anyone know how you prevent...

I plan on doing so. I learned my lesson $60 later about that... Pretty much, now I'm just trying to figure out how to deal with this. I thought dead threads are supposed to stay dead so I made a new one. I couldn't take pictures yet but I will this afternoon. Now, at this point I am just trying...

No, now the GPS one won’t fit as the jackshaft is too short.

Well yeah but we can tell the diameter down to the wheels. They are mounted to the same shaft as the drive sprocket so they have the same rpm. It is just a rough estimate from the entire power train. I can’t check at night I’m in EST and garage lights suck.

PHOTO UPDATE: This is all I can give you until tomorrow afternoon. It is all my kart pics on my phone

Well there was one guy that said messing with ratios on a CC is a bad idea. I mean it will take some work but it is relatively simply to move the sprocket right? I think we can do the math. I am moving about 14 mph. The engine should be spinning about 3200 rpm since it was meant for like...

Looks literally just like it, minus the cage.

I do need to get better at sending pics and I think you are right. My dad was like “oh but that sounds like a lot of work and the farther from original the worse as it is harder to revert.” Either way, do you think I should go for the kit or just like buy a jackshaft? Edit: I can’t send them...

well I tried to measure and see my chances. Safe to say it isn’t working. I have exactly 0” of distance if I use a CVT. Now I did math and accounting for the money lost from shipping the GPS one back it is ~$120 + new chain length I waste/spend to go the Amazon route. I definitely do not have a...

So like how far could it hang onto the threaded section? If it is not at all then :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: .
