Trailmaster XRX Swing Arm Upgrade
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Today we take on a swing arm job on a Trail Master XRX go kart. The axle was bent from being flipped. These go karts don't have a very wide stance. We widen the back with a new 54" axle, add 4 axle bearings from Go Power Sports, build custom axle supports, and upgraded rims with 4x4 hubs. This kart will last a lifetime. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more!!!

Great job on the extension but why did you not paint it while it was apart. Maybe because as you said the customer owns a powder coating business?
Because it's for a guy who owns a power coating business. He probably just wanted it widened and nothing more.
Yeah, that would pretty much explain it!
Hi Red beard.I always enjoy watching your great videos.
Heck ya Sam
You rock sam👍
How did you attach the hubs to the axle Shaft? Did you just weld them in place
I must be getting old (and I've always been lazy😄). I get exhausted just watching YOU work!
love your vids keep it up
Hey have you ever looked in the building one of those King midgets think you would do an awesome twist on it
One of those made into a 4x4 would be damn cool. Kind of a half-size Jeep. They're gettin' pretty hard to come by, but I do know where one is.
By the way, in these PC, liberal times, you have to call them a King Little Person now🤣. Same for the MG.
Mantap bang
Have the mid xrs trying to swap sprockets. How did ya get the hub that holds the disc and the sprocket to move . Can't get mine to budge
Those who dont listen others and they set up their buggy with swingarm and solid axle (engine on frame) are the ones that will run around cv axle bs..irs or cv joints are only good for rock climbing..nothing else..
Very cool upgrade. I'm not crazy about the engine mounted to the swingarm. Seems like it will cause issues over time, but I couldn't say how else to mount it give the short wheelbase. Maybe hang it from the chassis above? IDK. That thing is all kinds of cool though!
Can you tell me where to get the front A Arm suspension upgrades? Or is that a custom build?
When's the windrock vid? I wanna see your footage of etard,batman nachosdad n the rest of the awesome ppl that went👍👍
Thanks for the video RBG and god bless
Where did the customer get the extended a arms just wondering so I could put them on mine
Is the trail master 150 xrs worth buying?
Hey, how come the B on that RBG on the trailing arm ain't all welded up?
I like how the saw blade magically changes 😂
7th here
I have one just like that one for my son. Can you do same work in Maine?
If I have a torque converter on my go kart can I change to a clutch
1
And if so what size clutch I need
if i was to spend all that effort on my childs toy id like to think id fabricate a motor mount and remove the engine from the swingarm since the child has already flipped it couple times its only too obvious he has outgrown the rediculous golf cart factory system ..... or better yet build him a real buggy.... 😁
Grady Turner I just commented the same thing😆 Great minds think alike👍🏻
If ya remove the engine from the swingarm, wouldn't the chain come off when the suspension flexed? I suppose a sturdy chain tensioner could be devised, as long as it was spring loaded.
great video
Redbeard where are you located?
I have one of these in SC with a broken rear axle. Your welcome to it if your in the area. Mine is a silver streak . Looks exactly like this tho
Say, you know the Cars and Cameras boys, Ike and John, are in North Carolina (with additional property in West Virginia😄). I bet they'd make a trip for that.
First woot woot
Heck ya bud great job
That thing is beefy
Very good brother 🤣😊
Comment for support
...and here I can't figure out how to get my generator fixed lol
Well, ya go down to Home Deepo (lol), Trackter Supply (lol again), or sum such, and plunk down yer Visa card...😂
You are so strong Mr
Its the power of the BEARD💪😜
Hire me please!!!
Like that go kart
I just seen a LS powered go cart I think you guys have some competition lol
We need to see this little go kart in action !! I’m very intrigued by the front control arms that might benefit my hammerhead 80t
hi I'm new on your channel I have a question what size of rear sprocket you installed on the mini chopper I do have one like yours with a torque converter
I love watching your video and have learned a lot from them and you have inspired me to start my own channel in hopes to teach and show people things
Good info as always! Thanks for sharing. I've often wondered about the vertical load on the extensions you add, but I see you put them on a lot of different frames and never seem to have any issues. Good stuff!
Great job dude, well i now how to install those kinds of axels ty
Congrats on 500 videos!
Great work on the go cart looks fantastic, and very strong
Woah, 0 views, 0 comments 😳
Another thing that be really awesome that I haven't seen anybody else do on here at least from what I've seen anyway is put like a car engine on a go-kart or a crawler or something maybe even a four-cylinder I saw at LS fest video where some young kids took a Chinese go-kart LS swapped it but it's another thing that if you did it it would have been a hundred times better theirs look the borderline dangerous keep up the good work love the content keeps getting better and better
That's cuz of the weight: that much weight (even an aluminum block 4 banger is 250-300 lbs) would require a much stronger frame, axles, wheels, tires, etc. Then you're really just building a small baja buggy or sports car (like an Ariel Atom).
Like your work bench...
did you really have to tear down so far to weld up new hangers? just saying 🤔
Yes, because you can't cut off and modify mounting points with an engine bolted to it.
Sick👍
What! No powder coat or paint. Rust away...
He did the buggy for his powder coater. So I'm guessing he'll take care of it.
I like it
Whoop!!!!!
That little cart is cute as heck!
