The Not So Cool Mini Buggy Build

[landuse]

Nice. I wouldn't worry about the front end. As long as it doesn't mess up the riding experience you should be fine

the yerfdog front end is about 3/8ths off kind of twisted and thats why my rool bars in the front look so terribly off..

I think I see what you mean. I wouldn't worry about it, but if you are you can always cut it off & try again.

As landuse said, if it works, leave it alone

So, what's been happening? We haven't seen anything for a few weeks

[OzFab]

finally built a little bar to square off the rear end and put in my new engine with all of its wiring! Cant wait to ride this thing!!! Enjoy

Welcome back!

Nice job on the rear bar, it looks great.

Pics get a little fuzzy towards the end but I get the general idea. Have fun!

Got my chain on and my brake disc.. The disk is not where i originally wanted it to be dude to the kick start but i can still easily make it work. Enjoy

Wow, It sure has came a long way. It went from something that you couldn't pay me to drive to something that I wouldn't hesitate to hop in and take around the block.
I'm just wondering about the sprocket size on the axle, it looks a bit small.

 

[n1kogr]

Hahaha I have to agree with you on that one lol! Im a little iffy about the sproket myself but if i see any problems i will most defiantly get one with more teeth. This on is a 36t #41 i think maybe like 46t would be perfect but ill have to see.

Just be careful you don't burn up the clutch with high gearing, I've been told that they're a pain in the but to replace.

EDIT: just read through you m3 work log and i'm wondering, Is that a I-6 or a 4 in there? I cant quite tell.

 

[n1kogr]

i know im gonna keep a close eye on it.. Yes the m3 is a 3.2 I-6

 

[n1kogr]

Got alot of work done today! The rear end is for the most part finished enjoy the many pics

Are the sprocket ad brake disk welded to the axle?

 

[n1kogr]

no no i take it you saw the grease around the hubs.. i have a very thick layer of grease on the axle because it rusted once and dont want to put up with that again. I hope thats not bad for anything

 

[exenos]

Ok, good I was a little worried about that :0 was wondering how you would change out the sprocket.
