  • We're getting close to completing our Tillotson 228cc powered 4WD power wheels go kart! In today's episode, we change the final drive gear from top speed to more acceleration. We also change the shocks, stiffening them up for a firmer and more controllable ride. We'll be painting this project soon, and it'll be complete!

      @ScottGovey 3 года назад +3

      @@Toolingabout yes you can cross drill holes on the braking surface of the drum to help cool it, it also gives the water somewhere to go to help prevent brake fade. I have cross drilled drums for older from drum brake cars in the past just for this reason. Just don't get carried away with to many holes lol.

      Yep, Ike's fat a$$ requires it. Additionally, I am sure they weigh more than the engine/etc. in the front thus the need for a more aggressive spring in the rear to actually have a level ride height vice the squat they now have.

    Its know wonder the rear is soft with them shocks so layed down, you would have to have twice as much spring to make it as stiff as a shock standing up.

  • @chrism9069
    @chrism9069 3 года назад +3

    I’ve always wondered why the rear shocks are at such a steep angle, it essentially defeats the spring, placing it closer to straight up and down would make it not sag as much and allow the springs and shocks to do their jobs more effectively.

  • @derekolson4168
    @derekolson4168 3 года назад +2

    When you are changing gearing. Changing the small sprocket in the equation has a greater effect than changing the large one. Example, if you have a 12 tooth clutch and a 60 tooth wheel, you will get a 5 times the change adding or removing one tooth to the clutch versus adding or removing one tooth to the wheel.

    • @Truth_Spoken
      @Truth_Spoken 3 года назад

      Uhh, no. It’s not 5 times the change. Yes a tooth difference on the smaller gear will have more of an effect than a tooth on the larger gear but no where near 5 times.
      The gear ratio is calculated by dividing the number of teeth of the driving gear by the number of teeth of the driven gear. Doesn’t matter which is changed, it’s always that formula to calculate the change.

You need a better carburator. That one bogs out. Testing is just part of working out the bugs. If you lenghten the steering shaft longer, you two could easily steer it better with out hitting your knees and legs. Good video! 😁👍 Don't be mad at me. I was just sugesting.

    I mess around like you guys do in my shop. I am not an expert but my observation on the Bronco being too soft is that your rear shocks are layed down “way” too low. As your suspension compresses the rear shocks loose their leverage and spring rate is decreased
    alot! Please raise the top mount. You may have to also move the lower one twords the swing arm pivot to retain your ride height.
    I never write comments.

      . if you have a impact . use it to pull the flywheel nut. .. If not. Remove the spark plug . and push some rope into the spark plug hole . .. _( so the rope jams between the piston and cylinder head ). This shoukd let you . Remove the flywheel nut with a ratchet. . then if you donot have one I. Reccomend getting a 2-3 jaw puller large enough to remove the flywheel. . the wrong way to do it with out a puller. Is risky. As it involves runni g tge flywheel nut flush with the crank shaft end and prying up on the flywheel with a couple flat bars while tapping on the flywhel nut with a hammer. ( if u hit it hard you can mess up the crank shaft. . if the nut is not threaded on to protect the threads from the hammer. You'll mist likley mess them up... ) why a puller is best.
