Hey guys. Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your videos and how much I liked both the simplicity (using box as apposed to tube) and attention to details. For example how you capped off the engine mount plate. Makes a huge difference in my opinion. Great job. I hope to copy some of your designs and ideas if I get a chance to build a go kart in the future. Love, respect and encouragement from Australia. May the great spaghetti Monster bless you with the gift of reason over myth. Keep up the great work
Hey I like all of your videos and I am actually trying to build a go kart similar to yours. I was wondering what hub bearings you used and where you got them from.
We used 5/8" sealed bearings from gopowersports.com. You can probably find them on amazon or ebay as well. Good luck with your project and thanks for watching!
We did, but the complexity and expense would have gone up considerably. Also, the balloon shaped ATV style tires are perfect for rigid yard karts. They offer quite a bit of suspension on their own. I'd like to explore suspension on a future project, however.
what wall thickness is that sqaure tubing for the chassis. if you mentioned it , im sorry i have been following the build , but i have been skimming through all the vids, and i might of missed that.
No problem. We used 14 gauge, but 11 gauge would be fine too. Just a little heavier. Here are the plans for the frame if you're interested... www.anticsgarage.com/gokart.html
Link to the live axle kit you guys used? And how does mounting the wheels work? I just watched every video In a row as I’m starting my project soon (broke my leg In a motorcycle crash so what else can an 18yr old do at home all day right?) I’m seeing a front wheel set that has 5/8 sealed bearing and the spindle lit I have is 5/8 , so does the wheel just slide on and a nut secured it? Also any links to the brake hardware and throttle cable or any hardware needed with it?
Here's the live axle we used: www.gopowersports.com/live-axle-kit-complete-38-axle-145-70/. Yes, the front wheels have bearings in them. They just slide on to the spindle and are attached with a nut. You'll probably need a spacer to keep the tires from rubbing on the steering arm. The back wheels are keyed so they lock on to the axle and spin with it. The brake drum and band came with the axle kit. I think I ordered the throttle cable from Amazon and it's just zip tied to the frame. Hope that helps. Good luck with your project and your leg!
What if I don't install a torque converter? My motor is 210 cc 6.5 hp I'm 1.78 m and 85 kg hahaha just telling you this because is important and want to know if there is no problem if I don't install a torque converter.
The torque converter gives you more torque at lower speeds- great for hill climbing. Your acceleration is smoother as well. A good quality centrifugal clutch should work fine too. However, it may not last very long in a live axle setup. A clutch/dead axle setup (one wheel drive) would be significantly cheaper to build and still be a lot of fun! Thanks for watching!

Great video series! Easy to follow and you guys did a great job of explaining the purpose behind every detail.
Most genius braken I have ever seen
True

@@anticsgarage5230😯😃 all the way from Australia.... impressive to say the least...I see big things for Antics Garage in the future
The link you provided for the axle kit didn't exist anymore being 2 years old. Was looking for same set up. Will keep looking.
this guy looks so intimidating, but hes just a good dad lol
Don't underestimate yourself your doing GREAT
is there a link to the torque convert and axle kit you guys have?
@7:07 I THOUGHT I recognized that flag to the left of the Ensign. Whoop whoop ICT! Haha.
ICT!

Roses are red violets are blue wanna see the paint color try 11:52
Hello, really like your videos and I was wondering what kind of cvt did u use
btw for peaple tjat dont know you can use a clutch insteed of a torque converter
Looks good so far. I think it’s going to ride hard though. Did you consider any suspension options?
We did, but the complexity and expense would have gone up considerably. Also, the balloon shaped ATV style tires are perfect for rigid yard karts. They offer quite a bit of suspension on their own. I'd like to explore suspension on a future project, however.
Thats what homemade is about
Can you give me a ruff cost of this hole build?
Roll cage ? Or bone breaker

Firstly great vid, loved it and subbed. Secondly Not sure if you’ve already mentioned this, but what is the welder you are using?
Thanks for the compliment and sub! The welder is a Hobart Handler 140.
What is the size of frame sir...

What size of axle did you use
1" diameter, 38" long. (40" would be even better.)
@@anticsgarage5230 thank you I was going to get 36 in
How much did this build cost
Hard to say exactly, because we already had some of the materials and components. If you had to buy everything new, maybe $600-$700?
i'm Japanese ilike you
Do *nt* *qu* it ntqu🙌👏👆
Im weriy spraise
What size of sprocket did you use
60 tooth on the axle.
@@anticsgarage5230 thank you
