We Bought a $100 BASKET CASE Go Kart... Let's Make It Run + Ride!

  • This cheap Yerf Dog go kart was in sad shape when we bought it for $100 and let it sit in Ike's yard for six months, but in today's episode, we fix it up, modify the front suspension, throw some new parts on it, and go for a ride! The Yerf Dog is powered by a Tecumseh 6.5 hp OHV engine, and the stock carburetors always give us problems. Someone began modifying the front suspension to give it a three inch lift while also extending the wheelbase, but they never finished it. We assume that they were going to put much larger tires on the front, but they never got around to finishing it. We put the Yerf Dog's suspension back to factory spec with a slightly larger tire from Go Power Sports.
    Thanks for Watching!

      @@adamr9215 thanks lol I should have been able to figure that out. I really do have a yerf dog 3203 with a duramax 440 with the governor removed, a stage one kit, and a gopowersports.com 40 series torque converter. But I changed from the 10t sprocket provided to a 12t one and I am running an OEM 60t sprocket on the axle with oem size tires (20") . It does 47mph. The low end torque is tremendous. It does tight donuts and I really believe I am still under geared. If I can find a 14t center spoked sprocket to fit a 3/4 shaft (yes gopowersports.com advertised a 5/8" driven shaft on their 40 series, but it was out of stock they were selling it with a 3/4 driven shaft at my time of purchase.) I think it can easily reach th 50's. Right now I just ordered new bearings for the axle because I've destroyed these. It's down till they get here.

    We have that same kart. It is heavy. Our carb did the exact same thing. Never had any trouble with it but the carb and the steering tabs bend out and touch the tires if you jump in much. It is a good kart overall and can take on some incredible terrain especially if the carb would behave. We swapped to a 212 with tillotson mechanical fuel injection. I'm going to go to a flat slide and a couple other add ons. we have 22lb springs already on. 👍👍
