Ackermann built in ? I want to improve the steering radius, so I am checking to see if the steering knuckles can be optimized for the new wheelbase. the front end was on a 110cc quad, and now it's on kind of a stretched kart .
So I tied a string in the middle of the rear carrier and stretched it to the kingpin bolt to see how the steering knuckle lines up....
some close ups of the front...
Looks to me that the kingpin angle is making it so the tie rod is in line with the string.
The one thing I noticed is that with the small steering wheel, it's kind of hard to turn. I am thinking I may try to make the knuckle another inch longer for more leverage. I would do a similar mod to the steering end as well.
That is if I get around to it.
must...stay..focused...
Bleed the brakes again and add kill switch then I can call it done.
OK, so I got a nice toggle (kill)switch, and made a console out of sheetmetal. While I was at it, I added another hole for a light switch.
Since I had to take the steering wheel off to do the console, I couldnt let the opportunity pass by without doing something about the steering.
I added about 3/4" to the steering arm so that it will push the steering knuckles a tad more.
