Thanks, that actually looks identical to what I have.

Any ideas where I can get shocks that are simular, or the same?

Here are pics of the front and rear shocks. [/ATTACH] Front are 6" center, rears are 8" center.

Thats awsome!! My daughter did the same thing to my 89 Cherokee with a rock, she thought she was washing it! Test drive went well, right upto the point that the clutch engaged sooner than she thought and whipped it around. Thankfully I had not disabled the oil switch, which killed the engine...

I'll try the carb, it was funny, last night 10pm my son (3) comes out to help me. I was adjusting the chain and went to pull the jackshaft, it wouldn't budge! My son had grabbed the right wrench and tightened the bolt!! ITS AWESOME!! Oh, tested it today in my lunch break. All worked well. CAn't...

Not sure of the model year but 'yes' it is a Murray Hard Drive Cart. I drove it today (lunch break) it really needs shocks. Any idea where I can find some, these are only about 5-6" in length and are adjustable. I'll post a pic tonight.

Thanks guys for the quick responce. Greatly appreciated!

YES!! Just the answer I was looking for!!!! I will see how it does tonight, then start shopping for a TC kit. Any recommendations. I figure a 30 series will work well. Using a TC will I have to change my axle gear?

Just for info, the gear ratio is 9.36:1 ( 10T engine,26T J=shaft,10T J-shaft, 36T axle, 16" tires. This is all stock. no modifications....YET!:) The drum portion is not shiny, just has 2 destinct wear areas with a high center area between. I took some sand paper to it last night trying to clean...

Well its done! I played with the tecumsin, could not get it to run like I wanted, soo, now a new P-212 sets in its place. I reused all the original drive components. Not too bad of a kart, will have the daughter on it tonight to take it out for its first run. Swing arm came out great, but found...

I am using a Max Torque 'SS' centrifugal clutch( I think) on a Preditor 212. The cart is a Murray Hard Drive. This is all chain drive. Question is the clutch unit is in decent shape, noticed some definite grooving on the inside of the clutch( where the clutched make contact with the outer...

I read it, thats a great article! Answered allot of my questions. thanks.

Ok then, my previous post was what I had gathered from reading posts and looking for performance parts. I myself have never seen it happen either, but figured the warnings were there for a reason, besides a nice billet flywheel is still relatively cheap. And with the kids riding it, I would...

Get better shocks, I am running a HD hydraulics and have plenty of control and tolerable ride. On a 30032 Yerf dog.

Just my 2 cents here, the HP 212 is a great idea, I am running one myself. BUT, from experience( I was curious how the 6" would work) I found that using the 6" driven is great for speed,NOT for torque. even with just my 7 year old 40lbs daughter and her freinds it didn't like hills much. I went...

If you remove the gov. then you will need stronger springs or you risk swallowing a valve. Also there is a load of WARNINGS about running the stock flywheel with the gov. removed, they have a nasty tendancy to come apart! These are all mods to the engine. I would leave the engine alone and work...

Just my 2 cents.. I am running a 212 preditor with a stage one kit. (header, larger jet in carb, heavier springs, off-set keyway to advance timing) But even with out all that stuff, this engine stock was working really well with a 30 series torque convertor set-up, using a 7" driven, 10T...

I'll clean the carb, I think I found one for $40. On line, new. we'll see. If cleaning it doesn't fix it then I think I will get the Preditor and put a Stage 1 kit with an aluminum flywheel(govener deleted). We'll see how the $$ goes, I just might drop a stock unit on it for now..... Always...

I'll try to clean the carb. I took the bowl off and cleaned it out, wasn't very much in the bowl. Bought some carb cleaner, will pull the carb and giveit a good cleaning, not to much to those carbs, but its worth a try. Sorry, but I have to say the Preditor engine line is very impressive(I'm...

Question for the experts.. I am considering replacing the tecumsin engine with a Preditor 212. I am running this engine on my yerf-dog and it works great. Plus there are a load of performance upgrades for it too. I haven't found many for the Tecumsin engine. Just a thought. The Tecumsin runs...
