me do it haha that would be a disaster.. i will have the machinist at our shop do it. hes been working here for 30 years!!
when you say ( kl ) what does that mean?

 

[r_chez_08]

oh great! i made the mistake of buying a wolf generator engine, for £45, but it didnt include exhaust or fuel tank, and couldnt be bothered/ didnt have the time/ money th sort it, and a new engine was the best way, so i sold it for £35
kl= cool

 

[WHIMPEYROSS]

try not to make another mistake like that again!.. jk!

 

[WHIMPEYROSS]

looking good.... what back wheel, and how mutch

 

[WHIMPEYROSS]

i know their crap, but HF wheels. all i wanted was a rolling cart this weknd $6.00 ea.
i will up grade to better later..

 

[r_chez_08]

iv heard that they are rubbish, mine probably are too, @£5.99 a piece, but whatever gets the job done.
what are u using for an axle, proper keyed, or bar. i was going to use 25mm mild steel

 

[WHIMPEYROSS]

just bolting the sprocket to the wheel, and the wheel is sliding over a 5/8" bolt. with a 5/8" ID bearing. pretty simple really
but there will be a second kart comming soon after this one!!

 

[r_chez_08]

oh sorry, its 1wd lol
my bad

 

[WHIMPEYROSS]

it's "kl"
the next kart will be much better
have you gotten any more progress done to your kart?

 

[r_chez_08]

if u upgrade ur wheels, u could get something like this

 

[WHIMPEYROSS]

i was looking at that same thing a few days ago.
and i think i might go with that later on.
but i want to make this kart as cheap as i can lol..

 

[r_chez_08]

yeah, fair enough
mine will be as cheap as poss, im just using the baisics, nothing fancy
when i make progress i will post it.
