I have a yard cart and looking to put 18in mud tires on it. now its the old 5/8 differential and i'm scrapping those parts and going with a live axle. my issue is i have a 60t sprocket 10t centrifugal clutch on my hf 6.5 the sprocket only clears the ground by like 4inch, i dont want to mow the lawn with this thing. I want to bring the axle back further but how would i raise the axle enough for the sprocket to be higher off the ground? Also would leave the sprocket setup i have in these pic to get it to climb? or should i just leave the 60-10 sprocket on? thanks

try mounting the 18 inch mud tires up and see if the sprocket clears the ground.
Post some pics.
Post some pics.
i was thinking of that but here are some pics and if there is anyone from CT that I possible can connect with on this build project it would be appreciated. Today Im searching also to see how high a roll cage should be i was just going to weld it at 40inches but i thought i would check first. The tires are the 14inch ones and i plan on leaving them in the front 18 in back right now i need suggestions on fabrication, i.e extending the rear, roll cage and any others. In picture 1202 I've never seen this sprocket setup before, does it give it better torque? should I incorporate this back into the new build? i going for the buggy to work in the dirt.Thank for any help.

Redsox, so you think i should just stick with the 14's. also i 'm thinking of using a jackshaft and i have a 10t engine sprocket 48t primary in, 12t secondary out, and a 60t drive wheel. it looks like it comes to 24:1. using it for various terian. if this sucks can you suggest a better sprocket setup still keeping my 10t comet clutch, either 18inch 0r 14in tires. thank you very much
