I apologize if I’m posting twice again but I didn’t see my post pop up so I figured I’d try again. I made “stage 1 “ modifications (air, exhaust, jet and 18 lb springs. But I’ve read here in a few threads that I shouldn’t upgrade the springs unless I have made other mods. So my question is...

I’m revamping my sons 3170 and I’m trying to find a brake replacement but everyone I look up has a short cable likes it’s for front brakes. This one had hydraulic disc breaks on the back driver side. Any ideas on a replacement part number? Thanks in advance!

Ok great I think that is what I’ll try to do. I’ll keep you posted. It’s an American Sportswork Hornet BTW. Just needed some upgrades since it’s being passed down from older brother to little brother. I bought the predator and put exhaust, new air intake, new TAV, and changed the springs out to...

I have an American sportworks go kart that had a Subaru 6.5 hp on it and I’m changing it out with a predator 212 with a tav already on it. The current set up has a jackshaft on it. Can I use that with the new engine and tav set up?
