40 tooth sprocket

[r97]

hay everyone

i'm builing a go kart (as you may have guessed) and want a final drive rateo of 1 to 4 i'm using a 10 tooth #40/41 sprocket on the tc. so to get my 1 to 4 rateo, so obviously i need a 40 tooth sprocket for #40/41 chain. so far i have only been able to source out three 40t sprocket setups for #40/41 chain one at gokartsupply.com which costs about $50, and one at thebigbearingstore.com or something for $30, and lastly one on ebay for $12 which i bought but then ups lost it in the mail .soooo does any one know where i can find one of theses sprockets for less than 30 bucks cause that seams a little expensive for such a small sprocket. thanks

pretty easy in my opinion

everything he asked was on that page.

 

[r97]

yup

 

[DirtTrackRacer_07]

thats a good page to get sprokets

i have been having trouble to finding them

 

[r97]

it sure is took me forever to find but that whole site has alot of good stuff.

 

[redsox985]

Now that it's bumped, I might as well say this. If anyone hasn't noticed and had questions about chain compatibility, but any chain numbered #4?(?) are all available in the same number of teeth. A.K.A. they're all the same sprockets.

 

[r97]

we need a chain sticky about how #40 chain fits on #41 sprocket ect, heck #420 chain might fit on bike chain sprockets(depending on roller dia)

 

[redsox985]

Ya, I don't know about that but I do know that 40=41=420=428 in terms of sprockets, not strength.
