Go kart build Part 15 With Briggs & stratton 5hp – Finished/ Ride
Posted by admin | Under Uncategorized Saturday Jun 13, 2009Go kart Build Update Part 3
Posted by admin | Under Uncategorized Wednesday Feb 4, 2009
Welded up most of the frame today and got my clutch, sprocket holder, sprocket and chain from the kart shop. I have to get a seat before i mount the other three bars as two bars are for the seat and i cant weld them when i dont no the size of the mounts on the seat. When i get that and mount it i can weld in the other bar for the foot rest to what feels comfortable. Then i have to make up the spindles and weld them on. Once ive done that then i can get the diameter of the kart and then i can make the back axle. Once ive done that i can fit on the sprocket and holder and can drill the motor mounts and hook up the chain. Then i have to make up a little brake disc on the lathe at the same time i get the axle done and then mount 2 bicycle brakes on the disc. It will brake pretty good. On my motorized bike i got one set of brakes and that stops me pretty quick from 50km/h. Given the weight of the kart i will use two for double the grip. Then i have to make a steering wheel, make a shaft for it and make some steering arms. After that i can make some pedals and mount them and hook up the brakes and throttle.
Once ive done all this it ready to go! I reckon it will take me about 2 weeks to complete or just under. I think the completion date will be about January 13th. Stay tuned for more updates! There wont be another update for another week or so as i have to build this at my dads factory and he is on holidays atm and only comes to the factory like once a week to do stuff. He said he will be there next week so i should get a lot done next week.

How to Make a Go Kart
Posted by admin | Under go kart frames Tuesday Dec 2, 2008
Wanna make your self a go kart using some junk in the garage? Well first find your self a go kart frame,(we used a little kids’ pedal kart). Then take the axle/ gearbox and engine off of a front wheel drive push lawn mower and bolt them on your frame. If you have any questions about this, i’d be happy to answer them.

frame: free/fabricated
engine: free (junk lawn tractor)
engine modifications: $75
fuel cell: $10 at swap meet

Swap meet parts are the way to go.
