[r97]

That makes me wont to build one.

where did you find it?

You could have so much fun with that thing but it looks like it might be a little cramped.

i just googled powered wagon or something, i thought we needed some pics

 

[DirtTrackRacer_07]

it was definetly a good find no doubt.

 

[trickf100]

whats up guys... found a couple of pics to show you my predicament... wagon does roll fairly easy but after a day of drinking the cooler dry and hauling parts my muscles are getting tired... hopefully i can shoot these pics out right... thanks for all of your ideas in advance..

with 6 wheels i strongly suggest a diff or 1wd, or get rid of some of the wheels, how does it handle?

 

[trickf100]

well the wheels make it unique... the truckers love it...it actually pulls and handles fine except with a load of parts...at that point i must drink the beer to lighten the load...it doesn't weigh to heavy...curious...what is a 1wd...

 

[r97]

you have one wheel on bearings with a sprocket bolted to it so only that wheel drives the vehicle, you could setup a differential or independent motors but one is costly and the other is complicated

i have an old go cart that the kids no longer use... was thinking about converting over to a wagon chassis... you know what they say... welder and torches, you can accomplish anything...thanks again...
