Hey everyone, so i posted sometime last year asking for help on my go kart. I left it alone and finally i picked it up again. I have everything pretty much ready besides the brakes.
Im wanting to use the brakes that came with the frame, only thing i have no idea how these work. Ill post pictures and maybe someone has something similar or knows how to use them. I dont want to buy a mechanical.
Thanks

First,What is the motor???
Locate what/where/how you motor is going to be positioned..... As in the motor plate aswell..
Things are kinda predicated on this.....

Brake disc may move depending where the output shaft aligns to...

You may have to set up a bell crank rod to accurate locate the actuation rod from the pedal to the master cylinder...depending on the available length of brake hose to the caliper....

With this setup you have here.... most likely need just one of the calipers....

I agree with mckutzy you should only need one. If you know your rotor is where it's supposed to be you will have to fabricate a mount to mount your caliper around your rotor. And you will have to use a rod from your brake pedal to connect to the master cylinder ( the black piece ) or it may be easier just to mount the master cylinder directly to the brake pedal and get a longer hydraulic brake line.
