i need a step by step instruction on how to make a gokart out of a lawn mower and plywood can anyone help me?


Answer
It would be so much easier to mount the engine on an old lawn tractor and switch the pullies, put the big one where the small one goes and visa versa. It just so happens I have an old tractor I am getting ready to throw out, the deck is no good and the engine is off and in great shape. It had a 2 cylinder 18hp engine on it, but if you aren't very big just about any vertical shaft engine will move it and bolt up if it is a briggs engine. I'll give you the tractor if you come and get it, the engine I'll sell for $400 dollars! If you want to make it out of wood put a tractor rear end on it, a hydrostatic one like the one I'm throwing out would work fine. (In kentucky)

Can a 2 cycle engine be able to push my 35inch mud tires on a jacked up lawn mower or no?

Q. i have a jacked up lawn mower sittin on 35in mud kings and sits about 5 feet high and tryin to find a motor that would be able to push 35's but i want it to go at least 35-40mph can anybody help??


Answer
Not sure if I even want to know how you bolted thos up, but I can be certain that if you still have the original axle and trans, no matter what engine you put in there it will never reach that speed without breaking something. (probably the axle). Stock units will not handle the exra torque you need to spin those tires, and you will be in the 30-40 hp range as well . Have you ever ridden a lawn tractor at 20 mph? Almost imposible to control with stock tires and height. This thing will probably tip over on the first corner.I would suggest at least a 400 cc motorcycle motor/ chain drive to a solid axle. Don`t forget to post the wipeout video on your first and only test ride
