Well, I got everything finished up last night. Woke up this morning and threw it all together and my daughter has been riding non-stop all day. Well, she ran out of gas a few times and had to stop for a restroom break a few times as well. Everything is working like a charm! It'll even spin...

I spent a couple of hours last night cleaning the Comet clutch. First, I removed all of the rust with my wire brush which is attached to a table grinder. I then gave all of the parts a bath in a gallon of B12 Chemtool to remove any residue and to clean any oils or grease from them. I took out...

Better pictures of the jackshaft can be found in my DropBox account click me. The sprocket and pulley are both on the same end since the axle sprocket is on that side of the kart. If the axle sprocket were on the other side, then it would look more like the pictures you posted. Gran_Pann has...

That's the kind of info I've been looking for! ;) I appreciate the time you are spending to help me! I really do. I know time is one of our most valuable commodities and it's something that will never be regained. Thank You for spending yours to help me. Several people have said to stay...

I believe I mentioned it sat outside all of last winter and was perfectly clean when I put on the belts last summer! I know it's a horrible setup. I've already established the fact that I do not know what I am doing in my very first post which is why I need your help to make it work. I...

Here are the pics of my current setup. I have the chain going around the 10t clutch, a 10t sprocket on the inside end of the jackshaft, and the main axle sprocket. I believe I need to go from clutch to larger sprocket on the outside end of the jackshaft with one chain, and then from the 10t...

I have thought about going with a higher HP motor. I have a 14 in the garage that would work well for it, but I know the cart will have plenty of power for my daughter, wife, or son with the 5 HP, so I'll leave it alone for now. I want to at least get it in a drive-able condition before...

Well, I guess what I need to do is replicate the belt setup with the chains maybe. I'll post pics later today when I get home. I'll put the belt setup back on it, post that pic and then the chain setup and post a pic. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Blazkowiez! After the first belt bit the dust, I took everything apart and cleaned it really well. The second did the same as the first. The belts were both the correct belts. If I were to use the jackshaft with my setup, could I make it work then or am I stuck with a...

Hey guys. First post and I know absolutely nothing at all about gear ratios, sprocket sizing, etc... I have been trolling around and reading up as much as I can to try and find the answer before posting, but I want to be absolutely sure before buying any other parts. I know a lot of you guys...
