Please watch part 1 in its entirety. A title labeled part 2 would likely mean there is a part 1

Please watch the whole video on part 1. It explains this

Pls watch part 1

I just bought the chain below wit tool and sized it correctly. 410 bike chain - $10 CTE-24361 electricscooterparts.com Bicycle Chain Tool - $5 Need this to make the correct length Chain SKU - CHB-120 Electricscooterparts.com

I don’t make them

It’s been a while but pretty sure they fit on mine. If this is the case I would just ust drill out the atv rim to fit the wagon axle

Thanks. I ended up cutting off original wagon axle and welded atv axle on.

@@firefyter1972I looked and this is what I did as well. Sorry for this original answer

Sorry man I’m not doing it again. I’ve moved on :). These guys make some really nice ones though. ebeachwagon.com/

Awesome. Glad it helped

I’d sell the one i showed for $1500 , it’s a lot of work. I’d include the bigger batteries. You’d have to pick it up as it can’t be shipped. In Massachusetts

​@@johnbonzeyI would definitely pay that but im in Tennessee so thatd be a heck of a drive. Let me see if I know anyone thats ever that way.

I think the 9 tooth to 36 tooth will be perfect. I rode mine up a pretty long hill a lot longer than that and it was fully loaded :). You can see me at the end of the second video doing it. If it’s a huge sand dune you will definitely need to pull it or get wider wheels. ruclips.net/video/9pNKp3os20w/видео.htmlsi=yCZnG90h6Y35A9tc

@@johnbonzey Sounds great - thanks for the follow-up! I saw you go up that hill - my hill is 90 vertical feet to climb, length is probably 1/8 of a mile or so. Sounds like the 36 tooth sprocket is still the ticket though. Thanks again

@@CarCareKioskthe hill I was climbing was at least that long so you’ll be good. May want to get a couple bigger batteries since the ones that come with the cart are pretty small but who knows maybe they’ll work

lol That’s awesome. You did much better than me :). Good luck on the build.

Prob about 50 pounds. But I sit in it and and go up a the hill and I’m at 220 plus the contents with no issue on a 36 tooth to 9 tooth drive

@nickalderson4563 Check out e-Beach Wagon if you can't make your own.

I explain it all at the end of the video and it’s in the comments section. I was into it for prob $500 but that was a couple years ago

A reverse switch can be added from what I’ve read. You’ll have to Google it. I never added it and even after running this for a while still don’t personally see a need for it but clearly up to you.

Yes you can add a reverse switch to the beach cart. It comes in handy if you have a tight garage or shed and need to back out of it. I made a forward/reverse switch for my beach cart that was created from a razor dirt quad ATV. I will post a video on youtube showing it off and how to create the switch soon!

Hey again! Here is a tutorial on how I added a Reverse Switch to my Beach Cart/Razor Dirt Quad ATV: ruclips.net/video/5IfXxSNkaHA/видео.html

I honestly can’t remember what wires I connected to the thumb throttle but I only cut one of them and ran it through the ignition. If I had to do it again I’d prob not even use the key and just unplug the quick connect at the battery connecting the + and - It works but I don’t even use the key anymore.

You will need to remove the master link on the chain. It will move but you will not be able to pull it for long without being exhausted :)

Just look for a razor dirt quad on marketplace or Craigslist. You’ll see the wheels will look the same as on my cart

Disregard, I just watched your video on the sled deck....thank you again!!!

I just back it up to the ramps I made shown in the video. Gravity let’s it come down without power. u DEFINITELY need the brake :). I did buy a cheap harbor freight hand winch for like $13 that I welded to an old ball mount I had and slid it into my truck receiver. Connected up a drill to it and it worked great but in the end just backing it up worked fine

The bonnlo wheels have some pretty bad reviews so I’d be interested how they work out for you. Like I said in deep sand with the dirt quad tires you’ll have to help it but it was a non issue for me.

Never weighed it but at least 75 pounds. I put it into the bed of my truck by myself

I’m sure you can. I made a cover for mine that goes over it all but it is open on the top. I really don’t know if you should make sure it’s ventilated for heat dissipation .

You will have to modify the rear axle setup for sure

@@johnbonzey Roger, it’s a bit annoying I can’t post a photo on RUclips’s messaging

I didn’t wire it up for reverse. Honestly I can’t remember if these motors on the dirt quads can be wired for reverse. Normally the polarity is reversed on the motors through a switch to get the motor to run backwards. Never saw the need for it personally.

hey did you end up finishing your project? id like to know how the hoverboard motors worked out thanks

@@carl0s288 Not yet. I'm still debating which speed controller to get. I think I'm going to go with the cheap ones for now. If anything just to test. If they work well I'll stick with them. We are heading to the beach in September so I haven't been in a huge hurry. Taking time to research. I'm worried the cheap controllers will burn up when they hit the sand. I did purchase battery holders that use Milwaukee M18 batteries. I'm going to use those to power it. I'll absolutely let ya know as soon as I get the speed controllers

I read this again and this is actually an awesome idea for loading and unloading. Thanks for the tip!!!!!!!!!

​@@johnbonzey😊 I had to add a little extension to the ramp but absolutely worth it! The attention just loading up is awesome lol. I haven't changed the sprockets out yet but I want to make it a little better in the deep sand. I had mine LOADED lol do you think the torque is better with the sprocket change or should I go to a 500w motor?

@@jasonc470 the sprocket was easy to replace and definitely adds a bunch more torque. I really think not changing the sprockets out will eventually burn the motor out since you are not running full rpm. Even if you add a 500w motor I would swap the sprockets. You can see in the second video the motor bogging down in deep sand so I too have been contemplating swapping the motor at some point. If you do this please let me know what you went with and how it worked out.

I did after the video. The follow up video shows the original chain cover installed

Thanks. It will be WAY cheaper to build yourself. I'm not a welder either as i bought one last year. This is definitely a good project to do yourself. It will take time for sure but as long as you can cut metal, grind, wire stuff up its pretty easy. The welding you will figure out :). The first thing you want to do is search on marketplace "Razor dirt quad electric". Find one for under $300 bucks - you may need to be patient but they show up. i wouldn't buy a new one for sure. The razor dirt quad has just about everything you need - motor, frame, wheels etc. I put the detailed parts list for everything required under the description. I was too cheap to buy the wheeleez but if you don't want to pull at all this would prob be the way to go - at $100 a piece i was thinking the project was getting out of control :) All in I was prob at about $500ish complete. An example of the dirt quad you need is at the link below: facebook.com/marketplace/item/1197225557645505/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post

Awesome! Just saw in your title it said kids atv I missed that as you could probably tell by one of my questions. Thanks for the detailed response. I know it was a lengthy comment.

@@inspectorgadget6510 good luck and if you decide to go for it just let me know if u have any questions

I had just remembered about your beach wagon build a few days ago still haven’t built one but really want to. Do you think the wheeleez wheels will be much better in the sand? I saw in one of your comments to me if you don’t want to pull the wheeleez wheels would probably be better. I never have used them but do you think the Wheeleez wheels will make it so I’m barely pulling the wagon?

Lol I understand. It’s really not that loud though. It seems the microphone on the phone makes it sound worse than it is. You can hear it for sure but I could care less if I don’t have to drag this stuff anymore :)

​@@johnbonzeyit's only that loud due to the cover over the motor and chain lol take it off and you can't hear it. So either a little nose or a sandy drive line lol

​@@johnbonzeymakes sense lol but yeah i was thinkin this til i saw what you said about it. super helpful video man that thing is a beast! i haul rocks from a river up a very rough uneven path and this would be a game changer for me. i could probably double my production with this set up. ill give it a shot 🙂 thanks for makin the vid 👊

I sized the batteries so I don’t need one

With a steep incline on sand you will need the wide expensive balloon tires

Bottom rail just pops off. Slide it under and put it back on. Takes 30 seconds

Awesome. I couldn’t figure out how to mount the thumb throttle without changing out the original handle. Good luck with your build.

@@johnbonzey OK LOL I slammed my little cart together. Nothing fancy very simple, but works for what I need it for. Thanks again for the idea John. You did a far more superior build. Oh yeah I did install the same sprockets you listed. ruclips.net/video/fISjq-XToq0/видео.html

@@MegaKB333 awesome. Glad it worked out as it looks great

I actually built the bench area like in the video link below. I finally can see my garage floor :) ruclips.net/video/r2QAMYJDFbE/видео.html
