I'm looking for a live axle kit that's less than $150 to replace my current fixed axle setup.
Around $100 would be preferable.
If someone wants to cut up a junkyard kart and sell me the axle parts or something, or knows of a place where I can get parts to make a live axle for cheap, that would be great!

After everything, it ends up being ~$120.
With no brake assembly.
But those just slow you down. :cornut:
Once I get the money, I'll get the parts piece by piece.
