Go Kart Full Suspension Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) Time Lapse

Full suspension makes mini off road fun spectacular. Here's a time lapse of a day in the garage making a-arms, a center spool and connecting atv shocks to make a full suspension crosskart. Thousands of builders are taking the plunge into home fabrication and coming out with amazing machines. Powered by anything from a small Harbor Freight generator engine to a full on race bike 4 cylinder engine and Everything in between. All from the chassis designed with home builders in mind and endless possibilities. A sincere thank you to the dudes in garages joining in on this adventure.

So you know where I'm at in my own cross cart build. I've got contractors putting in a base pad for a 10x16 shed in two weeks. =P

[@KJRaycing]

That’ll be a good workshop!!!

[@williamlanphar630]

Anxious to put mine to the test !!

[@LocknessRides]

What are those axles from?

[@michaelmerrill589]

What tooth 520 sprocket did you use with gear box and 2:1 reduction also top speed with gear box what diameter tires on drive alxe and RPM @ top speed?

[@michaelmerrill589]

I found my 530 sprocket @ BMI karts out of the state of Ohio sprocket drilled for sprocket hub 3¹/8" bolt pattern to work with sprocket hub from Gopowersports out of the state of Texas.

[@mr_BEaN8721]

not sure why these are not more popular

[@KJRaycing]

They are getting there 👍

[@ntoxic8edx]

You you sell a premade rear diff ready for axles? Or can you? And how much

[@KJRaycing]

I have made some kits for guys and sold them through the KJ Raycing build group on Facebook to guys building a VF-1 or VF-2. Hit me up through there if you need one.

[@myronjansen2165]

I love this! Definitely gonna buy the plans; will be my first big fab project!!

[@wildblueenergy]

What is the tube sizes you are using for the frame?

[@JTAllen-kl6jy]

Can one of these be made street legal?

[@adamlarson5976]

Depending on the state you live in yes. Needs lights turn signals and headlights . Look up vastly builds on RUclips he's got his licensed for the street.

[@JTAllen-kl6jy]

@Adam Larson thank you! I will do that. Do you sell the plans for your 2 seater, and can I put a 1000cc motor in one?

[@KJRaycing]

Kj-raycing.dpdcart.com for the VF-2 two seater. I currently have a 1300 hayabusa mounted in mine 🤓

[@JTAllen-kl6jy]

@KJ Raycing thanks, you rock! The plans look great I'm gonna get started on one of these! I appreciate the help!

[@ClumsyGamerGuy]

What's the pros and cons of both suspension setups?

[@KJRaycing]

The biggest pro is that you can chose which one you like best for where you are running 😁. It’s simple low center of gravity vs ground clearance. 👍

Manual sube

[@charleso0o0o]

“AM INTERESTED in design of an electric, chain-driven power base that could drop in to either a horizontal, lawn tractor with PTO & belt-driven transmission, or a designed, RWD buggy. AM 67, LIVING quietly off-grid with PV. I WANT to shop for free (not race). WHAT DO you think? GIVEN YOUR perspective, does it seem possible? THX.” 😐

[@KJRaycing]

They make them, they are just really expensive. I keep a watch on electric power systems waiting for the price to come down a bit. If you’re looking for a low power build the chassis with the homebrew spool would be a stellar setup 👍

[@charleso0o0o]

@@KJRaycing “YEP, THX your differential is a bit stronger than necessary for a buggy that might use a 48V, golf-cart motor. IT’S PRICE & quality however, are good factors.”
