bare bones 4x4 kart

[tiremikejr]

just throwing an idea out there. I love to create out of the box things and I have never seen this before. I guess there are a couple ways of achieving this. four motors all four corners on dead axles - two motors one front one rear with live cv axles or a differential. maybe im crazy or maybe im making wheels turn no pun intended

Many here have tried, I don't think any have succeeded; that's not saying it can't be done...

However, there are inherent problems with each setup, the main one being transfering power to the front wheels & also making them steer

I have seen a 4x4 electric kart before. You might have to rob a drive train from a mule or a rhino.

Its doable just gotta get creative and research how the side by sides are doing it.

Front and rear diffs with a transfer case would be sweet locking diffs would be awesome as would being able to twin stick it just do a front dig or just a rear dig.

See now you got them hamsters in my head going crazy and I will have to draw up some plans curse you!

4 times the work for 4 times the money for a 20% gain sounds totally worth it
