CUSTOM SHIFTER KART BUILD PART 1: PLANNING

  • In this new series on japanda tuning, I build a custom shifter kart from scratch and on a budget. In part one here, I planned out everything and designed the kart so I can get fabricating it in part 2. This is an extremely important step in building a go kart, so it you want to attack a project like this, this video will help you a lot.
    Here is the link to the 3d model of the frame:

    Seems awesome that you are building something similar to a vintage tony kart. If you are going shifter I recommend the ROK Shifter engine. Very reliable as far as two stroke race engines go. I race a 2016 tony kart 401s. Best of luck on the build. Can’t wait to see the final product

    Cool Build! I’m in the process of building one for my senior project. Planning is definitely essential. As you progress, there are always issues that you run into that weren’t foreseen.

    What kind of steel are you using and if you could link the welder and pipe bender you purchased that would be wonderful! I am planning to build mine go kart soon but am finding vague explanations as to what type of steel to use.

    • @PeterArmour
      @PeterArmour 4 года назад +2

      Mild steel, or low carbon steel tube is what I used for this project. This was before I had a tig welder so that was my only option. The better way is to use 4130 alloy chromoly, used in race cars and commercially bought kart chassis. Chromoly is stronger, so a thinner sidewall can be used to create a lightweight chassis. Chromoly also has a high chromium content, so it will not rust like a low carbon alloy will. Downside is chromoly is a bit more difficult to work with, and it has to be TIG welded, not mig welded like this frame was. The welder used here is a hobart handler 140, and I used solid core wire with 100% co2 shielding gas, which is not ideal, but its cheap. The TIG welder I now have is a lincoln electric squarewave tig 200, which is what I would use if I were to do this project again. As for "pipe" bender, the proper tool to use is a tube bender (tube is measured in OD, pipe is measured in ID and is not as precise). All the fabrication tools can be found on tricktools.com. Alternatively, you can use a cheap harbor freight pipe bender, but it is difficult to get bends to be the proper radius, and will likely kink the tube.
      Building a frame from scratch is very expensive, and it was a good learning experience to get me into fabricating, as I have some projects I would like to build in the future that use these skills, but if you want a go kart frame, just buy a used one to save money and the hassle.

    You can convert the PDF to SVG for free and it uploads to the right scale as original . And ofcourse you can measure all the parts that are not shown on the PDF ,and put them in yourself . Hopoe this helps .

I myself too have monkey bike and will buy 125cc lifan when i get some money but i just bought g29 so i have to wait a bit and need other parts too and they very common here like in my school there is 5monkeys and couple suzuki pv's
