    I know he won’t see this... but he needs to do a couple things.
    #1 you need to fix the darn throttle cable so that the RPMs are the same. Otherwise you will destroy your transmissions.
    #2 you have more power now but that only helps on acceleration not top speed. You need to change the gearing for top speed.
    #3 contact gopowersports for possible mods like tuning it to get rid of the governor and stuff

    Best way to learn how to weld yourself is to do a bunch of practice welds on some scrap. Test them by sticking them in the vice and pound the crap out of them with a hammer. A good weld will be stronger than your material, so if the metal fails before the weld you're good. Try some out, make some adjustments, try more.

    • @thecleancaveman7770

      I just learned how to weld by that exact method. Took scrap, put it together. Had my friend teaching me point out what was good and what wasn't (too slow, too fast, good heat penetration, etc.); then at the end, gave a good smacks with a small sledge and she held up just fine. It's such an incredible skill to have.

    To 100% help with the turns and possibly hills and dips, put the rear engine assembly on a single swiveling connection centered to the back of the first engine. Would require some rework of your current construction but that would allow the engines to flex when turn and also allow for more travel on hills and dips.

  • @chasefreedom5178
    @chasefreedom5178 3 роки тому

    Off the engine cradle of engine #1 engineer a pivot just above the bottom of cradle. Dead center of course. Making a single attachment while loading the rear axle sharing the load. A u- joint comes to mind for the pivot. The ability to keep the wheels on the ground will keep rear wheels planted. Then the suspension will require longer travel on the rear shocks. In negotiating terrain make sure the engine frames do not contact one another. Electric fuel pump would solve fuel issue.

    Matt, I've welded the steps on a Budget 26' Liftgate truck also the front steps closest to the diesel tank, the same type you were doing. Except I used a "J" design on each weld. Something that was taught to me by a welding shop, although I didn't work for them. I did do it right because the guy who had taught me how to do that repair rented the truck I'd repaired. Saw them and told the local dealer I'd done them right. It's not hard but you do need to make sure that you go completely around the object that you are welding.

    If you want better welds do your prep work this means grinding bevels and at the very least grind an inch back from your weld this will help keep contaminates out of your bead and “new” metal from the store has a protective coating on it even if you can’t see it. That’s why it doesn’t rust in store. Also you need a minimum 225amp welder mig or not.

    You need to get a shielding gas hooked to the welder. Fluxcore doesn't provide enough protection on the weld just helps to "deep clean" the weld metal.

    You really need more articulation on that rear setup. If you move the upper mount of the shocks/struts down toward the ground, you’ll get a lot more articulation and less spring tension.

  • @randyv686
    @randyv686 5 років тому

    You have restricted the ground contact due to lack of compression in your rear two "axles". With two power plants/suspensions in the rear, you need to soften the springs/shocks. You don't want to shorten the travel but you do need to try and find springs that do not have as much lbs/square inch.

    @seththibodaux1783 5 років тому +5

    Seemed like your voltage wasn't set hot enough. From what I could see, it looked like you didn't have any penetration on the original frame. If the welds cleanly broke away from the frame, you definitely need to turn the voltage up and adjust the wire speed to work with the new voltage setting. That's just my analysis from what I could see in the video.

    • @stephonbarrette9862

      100% man his welds were good for the new metal joints as you could see bluing but that tubing is probably harder from the forming and if he's welding through the paint instead of cleaning it off more heat is necessary. Not a bad design at all though and i want to see version 2.0

    the shocks that attack the rear motor to the front are designed for the entire weight of the gokart, so they're too stiff for that application, if you remove one or get softer springs it'll help all four wheels stay on the ground

    If the weld broke then its your welding and your probably not getting it hot enough but if the steel ripped and the weld is still attached you might need to get thicker pieces. A ugly weld can be a strong weld but if you are not getting enough penetration then it won't hold. Preheating the steel before you weld it can help if you have a cheep machine.

  • @TheFist2urface

    Install wider front tires to increase grip so that it will understeer less...should corner way better. Of course that means you have to upgrade the steering suspension components to deal with the added stress...as exhibited.

    i could weld that up so it never broke, even with your flux core welder. also, i would have used the hitch on the original kart and made it swivel so the rear engine was like a trailer but was able to make extreme angles. and i would have used the back rack for the mounts of the struts and added stiff shocks to the engine mounting spots. all cables could be extended, kinda the same way you did with the accelerator.
