- Following up from the previous video of the build. We start and mostly finish the new old rear axle of the go kart. Because I reused the old parts off the old frame, it made the axle instal a breeze. While editing the video the audio cut out because of the engine, so no need to panic about the lost audio.
Rear Axle specs:
44 inch long 1/4 inch keyed axle
4 on 4 hubs with a 1/4 inch keyway
48 tooth sprocket and hub kit
4 bolt brake hub
1 inch pillow bearings
1 inch lock collars
18X8.5-8 tires with a 4 on 4 bolt pattern
1/4 X 12 inch key stock

Thanks for the parts list.😊
If I may make suggestion, the use of angle iron welded to the tobingfor your bearings on the live axle would lend it a bit more strength due to the drilled mount holes.
Didn’t think about that, thank you
Thanks everyone for the comments and likes, check out the rest of my videos for more info and entertainment
Can you give a link for the 4 bolt disk brake hub
Is this a 1 inch axle? How do the 4 bolt hubs stay on?
Question regarding pillow blocks. How do you know what size hole to drill for the pillow blocks? The mounting holes in the pillow block are oval shaped so do you need to use a bolt that is as wide as the hole? Or just a reasonably large bolt that will hold the pillow block with a washer? I am confused on that as I have my live axle ready to bolt to my frame now
You’ll need a bolt that will fit in the pillow. The holes are oval so you can adjust them so the axle is straight. Some bearing blocks do have different sized holes as well so I would find a good strong bolt that’ll fit, for the hole i would find the diameter for the bolt threads and go one size bigger. My advice would be to get a square so you can position the axle and mark the holes as straight as possible.
Where did you find a 428 clutch for your 428 chain and rear sprocket? That's a 428 sprocket I believe? Finding a 428 clutch has been tough.
Link for the mounting hub sprocket
Brother, I need your help. I'm trying to make an electric scooter trike. Using this type of rear axle assembly. So are you using 3/4" or 1" axle? Also where did you get the hubs and sprocket / rotor adapters?
Why don’t you try it making yourself. For hubs get a plate with holes welded on the thick pipe that gets mounted on the acle on the other side 😀......
cost efficient 👍
Mantap bang saya juga lagi bikin go kart...😊👍🙏
tell me how to stop...while engine still work
How long is your rear axle?
Top 👏 também estou fazendo um mine kart inscrito👍
Great video! Did your lock collars have key ways btw?
No, they just got a set screw. They do a great job
Axle link?
Nice! Where did you buy the live axle kit from?
It wasn’t exactly a kit, but all the parts I got on Amazon
Could you post a link to all the parts??
How is the sprocket attached to axle? Which axle did you use?
It’s a 1 inch axle with a 1/4 inch keyway I got off Amazon, same with a sprocket kit, it came with the hub, sprocket, key and bolts
@Atheistme look at part 12’s description for the products
Nice build. I am building one as we speak. May I ask, why did you mount the pillow bearings above the frame? Would it not be stronger if the bearings were mounted under the frame? Then the entire weight of the frame /wheels/tires would be on the bearings? Not a criticism just wondering.
Honestly it doesn’t exactly matter where the axle is positioned, as long as you have a strong place to mount it. In my case I went with the axle above the frame so it’ll help with the center of gravity. The goal for mine is to go fast in a straight line. Good luck on your build hope it comes out great!
How do u connect the throttle cable on the 301cc??
Watch near the end of part 9
@@robsshop8704 on my 301 cc when I give it gas it don’t move it probably flipped I got my engine from harbor freight
@@AdrianGarcia-tz1yx I had that issue with mine, they have the throttle lever tightened down. There is a nut you loosen up till the arm moves. There is also a set of linkages that control the throttle, if they are bent or disconnect nothing will work. Also check the cable itself to see if it’s binding up.
@@robsshop8704 alright thank you I will check rn
