Atv brakes retro fit?

[mr.matt]

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with the rear brakes off of an atv. I was looking for a cheap route to take with fitting some brakes on my cart. I here's what I was looking at

ebay stuff

I have a brake line that I could use to lengthen and work at a fab shop for bracket making stuff for pedals an such, is this a logical idea?

There was a thread a few weeks back about a brake setup which included a disc for he same price.

That being said, that setup should work fine

OR...

if ya want i got a brake setup off a quad. ill hook ya up for a nice price

I even have the line

and if the actual disc will fit your axle ill toss that in.

$25 + shipping if it fits your needs

Awesome, that's different than what I was thinking, but better. What did u use to link the brake pedal to the master?

I live in Tomball, North of Houston, an also run a cnc, lol.

A steel rod along the side of the frame. Did you see the pics near the end? It's great the way he set it up

i took brakes off a atv and made them work for my go kart, cheap and effective, we cant tell you do buy this and do this, it will be custom work but if you have any questions on mounting or bleeding ask us

if u brought a blank sprocket hub then u could carfully drill the required holes and mount it that way

when i used a differant sprocket on my buggy
i used the origonal hub then made a donut shape plate to bolt the sproket to
but i had a lathe

the good thing is u are only doing the brake disc so errors are acceptable un like the sprocket where any runout would cause the chain to jump off
