Does anyone know the approximate weight of the completed kart? I want to be sure I build the lift to support the weight. My cousins and me we looking to buy this kit but we have a different engine. Make sure to check your shaft diameter vs clutch internal bore. Hi Kartfab, thank you for all your work with this site. Looking at ordering for this upcoming summer Just wondering if it is possible to order a set of live axle go kart plans with reverse option?
Look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance. They are on the internet somewhere and are only rated for 8 hp. No engineering experience… I learned everything from your site and videos… Your go kart will be my first build this summer…. Do I need a torque converter? Can I just run a chain from engine straight to reverse kit? Any plans on making a video on how to do that? And with accompanying plans? Willing to buy plans with reverse option. Hi, my engine does not have a cable stop and I was wondering if you knew how to install one onto the throttle arm?
I live in Canada, so I was not able to purchase a predator engine, but it is a Honda clone so they are almost identical. I am not from canada, so I wouldnt know where to look. IIRC its a 4mm bolt, stop, and circlip. You can see the cost of the parts in the kit when you click on it. Hello KartFab I am planning to build this kart sometime, i want it to go about mph and be safe.
Can i use a 8hp cc predator engine for this go kart, or would it be to fast and unsafe. People have put 79cc up to cc engines on these, so the is right in the middle.
I have modded a mini xrx for my son and the 10 tooth sprocket on the tav30 combined with the 60 tooth sprocket on the live axle paired with a predator will take my son to 46mph if I back the throttle stop screw all the way out.
Have had alot of insight from your simple build. I know this was posted a long time ago but I I would definitely recommend welding the bottom plate to prevent stones and other debris from damaging anything in the undercarriage. Thanks for posting these plans. They were great for tackling my first fabrication project.
Looks good. I really like the green color. If you wish to convert the kart to live axle, you can do that. Just get a live axle kit, and chop the kart in half. You will need to get a new motor mount as well and center the engine.
My partner and I wanted to know of any experts are willing to help us how to build an electric go cart or give us more knowledge of how an electric motor works. We truly need help on our project and it would be amazing if any expert can help us. We also wanted to know if we can get donations for our go kart.
Thank you,. You commented this exact phrase on my YouTube video as well. Again, if you want electric, the basic components are motor, battery, and controller. It will be up to you to figure it out. Hi kartfab. I have one question can we use other engine like cd70cc engine or suzuki engine. Yes you can. You can use any engine as long as you are able to fabricate parts.
One difficulty of using a motorcycle engine is that you have to shift the transmission, and work a clutch. You can also use outboard boat motor shifter cables used ones can be found cheap off junk boats. To operate the clutch it is best to install a regular foot pedal, but in a pinch I have use a motorcycle hand clutch lever connected to the shifter handle which is usually made from an old piece of handlebar.
The easiest way to do this is to get one from a quad or 3wheeler. Then it will already have bearings and a sprocket carrier. We finished the live-axle go-kart after six weeks of work. But your plans explained everything clearly, and the videos were very helpful.
We ended up clear-coating the kart with glossy paint. It looks really good. It handles really well and all our neighbors admire it. We want to thank you for the great plans and for creating this website. Wow this is amazing my name is Tinashe I am from Zimbabwe I really need to make one but the costs here are high if i purchase things on the internet it takes 4 to 5 months to reach my destination.
My question is if i were to make a standard live axel kart does the level of rear wheels be higher than front wheels. Just make the rider level and the frame level and adjust where the axle sits on the front and back to make the frame level. Hi Kartfab! I have a question about my built of an go kart. Im gonna have a 6,5 HP engine in the front, and IM thinking about having a centrifugal clutch. Is it a god Idea to use it. And my next question is If i can have a chain all the way from the engine to the rear axle.
About 75cm-1m And If where can i find one of those or do i Need to customize one. It is probably a bad idea for a number of reasons. That wont stop you from trying it out. Who knows what you can accomplish with a little bit of trial and error. You can get parts in the links to the go kart kits, you can select just axle, or just clutch, or choose a different length of chain by looking in the parts list towards the bottom of the go kart kit landing page.
Look up radio flyer wagon go cart on you tube. It is built with engine in front and rear wheel drive. I have a question about the rear standard live axle assembly. But we only received four locking collars. Can you clarify? Andrew, the go kart parts that came with the kit actually have locking set screws on them, so you really dont need the locking collars except for the wheels.
The image is just an example, it doesnt matter where you put the drum as long as you can get a stud welded to the frame somewhere as the pivot point for the brake rod. IIRC it doesnt matter which side. Hey kartfab I have a question for you. I completed the dead axle kit a few months ago and I really enjoyed building it and having fun with it however it seemed a little small for me so I wanted to create my own kart would you need a torque converter to make it two wheel drive or could you attach a sprocket to a live axel and attach a chain that way to make it two wheel drive.
These plans look great, and my sons and I are really looking forward to building the Live Axle kart, which we just purchased plans for. I have two questions: first, is the 11 gauge tubing essential or can you work with something less, like 13 gauge?
I guess I wonder about the overall weight—11 gauge seems heavy, though I admit I know very little about any of this—and how fast the kart will go. Also, can you add upgrades like disc breaks and a torque converter later?
Are these difficult changes to make in six months or a year or whatever? That should be 11 ga. It will not affect speed. Only minor modifications needed like chain length for torque converter and welding on the mount for disc vs brake band. Have fun! But is there any real downside to going with a slightly thinner tube? I mean, I assume you chose 11 gauge for a reason.
Hi, from the pictures and videos it looks like the track is wider in the front than the rear. Tires look closer together in the rear. Is there a purpose for the narrower track in the rear? You are correct. You can make the track wider in the rear but you would need to build an additional support on the frame. If you widen it too much without widening the frame, you get some flexing and will bend something.
The live axle plans have wide tires and are about the same in the front as they are in the back. Hey this is Ethan I have just completed the dead axle kit and I was wondering would you have to completely restart your kart to make it a live axle. And would you use the same predator cc engine to go 35mph. I purchased your deluxe plan kit with the two live axle plans.
Is the only reason for the deluxe upgrade plan having a 2 tier chassis with the rear area being higher than the mid in order to accommodate larger rear tires without having a lot of forward rake?
If I did the standard build chassis with disc brake upgrade, would there be any clearance issue? The two tier design will prevent excessive rake.
Should be just fine unless you are going over some really big rocks. No idea, but if you know math and you have eyeballs, you could look at the plans themselves. It at least has the bare frame dimensions. Hey cartfab I have a question for you. So would I fit ok in this kart. Also, you may need to make it a few inches wider.
Just depends on what you want to do. Thanks, Kartfab! My Dad and I completed the go kart a few months ago. We used your free plans and were planning on using the centrifugal clutch one wheel drive setup but decided to put a torque converter and a live axle on the original frame.
We did not originally buy the go kart parts kit; we just bought the parts separately and found a few from some friends. Glad it worked out for you all.
Welding angle iron to make square tube must have given you a lot of welding experience! Please help!! Hi, I was wondering if you could provide the program which you used to 3d render the kart, and the link to the rendering itself. CAD, and i dont give access to renderings as people like to copy them and sell instead of give out. How long does the free shipping take to get to Portland Oregon? Want to place order in time for Christmas.
Hi good day I am from Colombia I would like to know if you sell, make requests for those who are interested in buying a go cart, I want to buy one and if that is how it is, how much it is worth stay tuned thanks.
Hi I am a freshman and would like to build this kart over the winter. Since I am younger my money is a little tight. About what was the over all cost with everything. I would love to build just need a starting point. Anyway to get the frame assembly complete?
