It's time to order all the stuff to convert my grandkids kart to a live axle. I'd like to find a supplier that can gather together a "kit" with all the parts (and where all the parts turn out to be compatible with one another) since I don't really know a great deal about what I'm doing I'd like...

http://www.surpluscenter.com/sort.asp?catname=powerTrans&keyword=PH40 I ordered 4 in various sizes for a 3/4 inch jackshaft - ~$30 with shipping. The description claims set screws are not included but they were present. Showed up in a week and fit.

Tonight I got rid of the belt and installed the 10-tooth clutch to a 24-T driven on the jackshaft / 10-T jackshaft drive to the 60-T sprocket and the chains. By then it was too dark to put the kid on it. Tomorrow we'll see what the result was and then on to learning live axles.

I've been hunting for tires as recommended above. But eventually I needed to mow the grass. When I jumped on my little Snapper rear engine rider I took a look at the rear tires. 15x6-6 but the tread area is flat and nearly twice the width of the the 145x70-6 knobbies on the kart now. That's...

My grandson has had his Carter 2235-1015, 5hp kart for 4 days and it's time to get the cut-off wheel and welder out. I would like to 1. Improve traction in the sand with wider tires and a live axle. 2. ~Halve the top speed and increase the low end. Partly because I'm clueless, I'm not...

I bought my first kart last week, a Carter 2235-1015. The kid in the kart is the designated driver. I've been lurking and searching on this site for a short while and found a lot of useful info (thanks). Now that the kart has run a few laps it's time for some modifications but I'll put those...
