  • Today we show you behind the scenes of the 420cc vs the 459cc video. We had to do a lot of work to the buggy to get it ready for the comparison. We swapped out the live axle for a fresh one. We also added 14" chrome wheels & 23" tires. Once everything was installed we ended up destroying a 40 series cvt by kicking the chain.

    Instead of welding your sprocket to your axle still use a key but substitute the weld for two double split shaft collars welded to the sprocket hub so everything still removable what you think??

    • @kwatt-engineer796
      @kwatt-engineer796 2 года назад

      My build is powered by a Duromax 440,which would break one of those small keys in a minute. my solution is to use an axle wheel hub with a one inch bore and a key way. Knock out the wheel studs and drill the flange to fit the sprocket. Now you have a heavy duty sprocket hub with an almost 3 inch key way.

    I will be VERY interested to see what you do with the new reverse gear box. I just discovered the existence of these after I purchased a Polaris Trail Boss transmission to make a reverse gear for my Duromax 440cc. kart build. It's a bulky build since the transmission has to be mounted separate from the CVT. The bonus is that I get 2 forward speeds . Low range will make a great rock crawler.

    I have the 459 pred on a 40 series, and it looks like the driven clutch isn't expanding all the way; maybe halfway of what it could move. Is this an issue of the ratio of the sprockets after the cvt? Does it want to supply more torque to fully open up,or more speed? Engine speed is at full throttle. I'm not sure what could be the issue and just jumped in blind on a project.
    It's powering a Kawasaki mule, with a 10t front and 48tooth rear. I'm planning to put a 20 tooth on the rear, because by my count, I'm at 30 spins at the 10tooth to 1 spin at the wheels right now and get 7mph lmao. I don't need a speedster, it's a work vehicle but...
