Yardkart low buck live axle swap

[Thepartsguy]

look at me being lazy... ah well the steering is finally cut off. now to center everything.

 

[Thepartsguy]

Everything is centered and welded solid. now to make a longer tie rod. then the steering is done. Next is to weld the seat centered and and far back as possible. lastly I’ll place the gas pedal and Tack it make sure it’s in a comfortable spot and weld it home. bonus I get to cut the leg rest peg off the side of the frame.

 

[Thepartsguy]

longer steering tie rod is on and the steering works just as it did. Now to bolt the engine on (loosely) so i can weld the seat on as far back as possible in the center.

 

[Thepartsguy]

slacking off again but hey ya know the way.. now that the seat is pressed in between the bars and centered I can make mounts and weld it home. I also thought why not push both pedals even further up and get some more leg room.

 

[Thepartsguy]

The seat is centered and welded home for good. 1:30AM ohh no... or oh well... now to go out and cut off the throttle cable bracket at the back of the frame and move it to the outside of the frame. Then I can extend the linkage rod and move the pedal way up then weld it home. And once I get the gas pedal pushed up I can move the brake pedal up to match.

 

[Thepartsguy]

3:30AM you have to look at the bar behind the pedals to see how far I moved the gas pedal back. now to move the brake pedal back. gets me that last little bit of needed leg room.

 

[Thepartsguy]

Ehh I can always move the brake pedal up later... split second decision bed time.

 

[Thepartsguy]

Ahh yes seven hours of sleep. where were we? ohh yes getting the brake pedal moved back. Then the carburetor gets torn down to every last piece and throw it in the bath. Hmm my minds a bit slow today..

Wake up (shake shake)
...do NOT take a bath with your carb
...it's not good for it (or you either)

Found the same exact kart on marketplace and you can see where the cut the bars to center the steering.
