Good catch. I picked up the pieces I was missing last night in order to fix the chain. Reassembled the clutch, chain, and drive wheel and noted that they weren't aligned either. I straightened out that issue but haven't had the opportunity to test drive it yet. hopefully today I'll get a chance...

Good clip thanks.

I goofed up the chain when trying to remove a link today so I don't have a picture to show anymore of it set up. I ended up bending the chain link causing me to have to remove two links instead of the one. Now it's to short, so I will have to pick up some extra master links tomorrow. I did tear...

Building a kart and finally got to take it for a test drive today. I have a 6.5 predator motor and bypassed the governor. I have a 12 tooth centrifugal clutch with a 35 chain and a 72 tooth sprocket. From a dead stop or a rolling accelaration the clutch is making a consistent popping sound until...

So I was able to get the job done. Not to my desired end state but it works none the less. For spacers I used the old bearings as well as a couple of washers to keep the rim off the spindle control arm. I wasn't successful at locating a thinner nut either so I went with the thread lock...

Here are some photos of the karts I picked up. The blue one is for my daughter and is just about compete. The red one is for my son and I just started the tear down on it today.

*OzFab: Wasn't trying to wrinkle any feathers or call anyone out. Just shootin the **** is all. Not to sure on what the current policies are for the site and how many admin users there currently are but my recommendations are simple (if not already in effect). Plus up the amount of admin users...

*panhead, thanks for the response. Not to concerned with troll factor. It's almost inevitable to run into them just about anywhere now a days. I try to just let it roll off the back. You would think admin would do something about them though. And yes I have been deployed a few times. Thanks for...

Great advice across the board. Much appreciated. I will start with the simplest steps first and escalate as required until the issue is resolved. First I'll try and flip the tires so the valve stems are facing in-board and see if that helps. If not I'll track down the then locknuts with some...

Thanks everyone. Sorry its been so long since I have been on here. I've been traveling for work and then went through some surgery etc etc. But I am back now and ready to woop it on. *Hellion, pleasure to meet you. Not much about me. I'm 33 years old have two kids one in high school one in...

So I just received my new wheels and tires for my go kart. Problem is that when I installed them the rim rubs against the spindle control arm. If I install a small spacer just enough to get the wheel of the control arm then I only have a few turns left on the thread to put the lug nut on. My...

Hello Everyone, I haven't purchased a go Kart yet, but I am in the market for one. I wanted to source some information based off my intentions so that I am a little more educated going into this project. So all I am looking for is a standard go kart that can be rode on the street, yard, or...
