Thanks KartFab! They dropped a little in price and I finally took the PLUNGE...I felt the same way for the last couple years finally just said screw it..:) Matt

Hey thanks fella! Awesome build! :kewlsmiley: That thing looks like an absolute BEAST! :thumbsup:

Hi all, Here's a quick video of us playing around on the 26X4 fat tire drift trike.. These things are so much fun. :cheers2: Watch the video in 4k if possible. Stay safe this weekend and keep it slidewayz :thumbsup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f6dNVrW_ds

Sold Thanks guys Matt

No worries. That's pretty much the same boat I'm in. I used a piece of 1" 3/4 .120 wall. Some stuff I had laying around from a set of rock sliders. It's no where near as elaborate as your frame. LOL. I'll post some pics soon. Yes, I want to put a 26x4 front wheel on it. I'm trying to piece...

Thanks I appreciate it. I'm trying to figure out my wheel and tire size now. I really want to go with a 6 inch wheel. 5x5 seems like it's more common. I just ordered a 40 inch axel, and the bearing and hanger kit from BMI as well. I'm planning on running a 11x5.50x6 rain tire. Trying to...

You're welcome. Yes, the drawing board is up to you. You can make what ever you want with just a few tools. I started with a cheap $50 frame off craigslist and made it a two seater for my son. We had fun and learned a lot. That might be an idea as well.

Hi, Steel is the way to go without a doubt. If your father in law will help, have him or borrow the welder. On the Home page you'll see kart plans. Also check out kartfab for other plans. DIYGOKARTS PLANS Kart Plans Kart Fab Have fun and start a build thread when you start.

LOL. I still need to update my kart thread with some pics. I will soon:)

That looks awesome! Getting close to the end. I just started one a couple days ago. I'm trying to decide on which size wheels and tires to run. You're running a 6" wheel and what size tire? Is the overall dimension 10 inches for PVC?PE pipe? Did you piece the live axel together? I haven't seen...

Alright fellas I got the go kart bug.... I've bought one.. rebuilt it from the ground up, flipped another, and looking at my third victim right now:lolgoku: I'll update build thread of first build with pics after the holidays. What is it.. It looks mean as heck and fun:2guns: Looks like...

That's a killer deal. The frame looks straight.

Yes, the bar is funky. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. The motor mounted on the kart now is 212. It started on the second pull. It has a total run time of 1 hour. It looks brand new. A local pressure washing company uses the motors and must have them branded slightly different...

I picked it up. I ended up getting two running motors and a couple sets of wheels. The wheels and extra motor was not in any of the pics. I'll upload a couple pics tomorrow morning. Anyone know the make or model? So far I haven't found anything on the frame to reference. Chancer, you think...

Headed out to pick this one up. Worth $100?? Opinions?? Thanks

Ya she runs like a top! He has a perma-grin for sure. Bugs in teeth and all, neither of us can stop smiling when she's scooting down the road.. Still need to get a few things dialed in. The brake band and linkage and well as brake/gas pedal mount. A few other details and we should be ready to...

That's awesome!! You can see the ear to ear grin in the pic:) Good work Dad!

Well she's alive. We figured out the motor mounting issue and dialed it in. This thing absolutely rips. We used a GPS app on the old smart phone and top speed was 28 mph! Feels faster than that. LOL. Still got some dialing in to do but she's finally ALIVE:)

Sweet! Looks like it's coming along nicely. I like that Fire engine red. $2 a can? Awesome!!

Just got back from the steel yard. The plan is to build a motor plate "base" out of square 1 1/2. That will raise the motor enough to fix the height issue. Weld the motor base frame and new motor plate a couple inches back and we should be golden. I plan to work on this tomorrow. I'll get some...
