Gear ratios

[Stevem]

Just wanted to say thanks, i haven't measured how fast it will go. But its faster than i care to go. Also will spin the tires on dirt. So kinda seems to be perfect. Took a while to reply. I had the Chinese version of the 40 series. It locked up after 2 days. So i , had to order the right drive clutch. . But anyway, thanks for the help!!

I could do that . But to me it makes no sense to. Its a sealed case. They sell different gearsets , but the lowest will only get me to 9 to 1. At almost 300 bucks. If i was to be able to adapt if you will to something in the case, i would most likely not be able to close it back up and that would just not work due to it having a quart of gear oil in it.
Plan now is to purchase a 23t. And put it in my Jackshaft, behind the driven clutch and try to reverse the 12 to 1 somehow. I am going to put either a 10t or 11t on the axle. That should get me in the ballpark of 5 0r 6 to 1. I could be wrong. Thats just the way i am thinking.

I am building an ez go cart that was electric, and converting over to gas as well. The rear end in mine has a 6-1 ratio and can’t figure out how to gear it as well. After buying several different gears for the rear shaft on rear end , I have decided to take the axle out and put my own axle shaft with disc brakes and a sprocket as if I were building a go cart, just seems so much simpler to me now after the headaches I’ve went through to this point. Just not sure what tooth sprocket to use. Any suggestions would help out.
