I have been trying to work out steering for 12hrs in total, this is so helpful, cheers mate

[@fordguyaj5581]

nice job on choosing the 5/8 bolts for the 7/8 wheels!

[@TechMechRandom]

lol I read your comment as he was about to insert the spindle into the tire.

[@StupidEarthlings]

Lol.

[@anthonyreddy2834]

Exactly 😂

[@Zigonce]

Do the springs do anything, or do the spindles just twist from the tortional load and lock on the pivot bolt? Why didn't you use any bearings? Wouldn't the welds be a weak spot?

[@ssarda675]

can u make a video on "how to weld the kingpin to provide caster and kingpin inclination on front axle "

[@muliadi2758]

thank you sir maybe i will try to make too if possible, try to make me a video on how to make homemade car legs..🙏

[@ratnakarvankore3415]

springs on the spindle would have been welcomed if shown in action (working)

[@StupidEarthlings]

Man thos DOM tubes are short AF, the leverage on those is gonna be crazy, i wldnt bother w the springs at that point.

[@isackasat3863]

This is very very clear. The caster angle will be important, please go deeper on that. I about to start building my frame soon. Will be helpful

[@landontotten5723]

Very nice vid lots of detail

[@Cherokee2005]

I noticed you had a fair amount of space in between the spindle shaft and wheel bearing. What are you going to use to compensate?

[@witosarlaw]

Mantap bang... saya juga lagi bikin go kart..😊😁👍

[@nasaralashram6436]

Nice work

[@goolgehatter1597]

Congrats to your short intro, it could even be a little shorter and still get the message out here.

[@Darkeiser.7]

made some of these a couple years ago and still haven't put them on a kart.

[@harrypool2765]

devin schmelter would you sell them

[@BruceBusby]

This is a really weak design. Sorry to be critical but the scrub angle is horrible, 5 degrees caster isn't nearly enough with a solid axle, wide cart. The springs are useless, far too weak and will bind from tortional load, the 5/8" bolt doesn’t work with 7/8" wheel bearings and will bend or break the weld. The "C" chanel made from flat bar should be radiused or gusseted. 1"×1"×1/8" tubing will deflect until the elastic deformation is exceeded, then it'll bend or snap. This should be used as a how not to build a cart for anyone heavier than a hamster

[@torbjrnaabergenes9971]

Hi, what do you mean with the C being radiused or gusseted? Do you mean it should be more square and not so reqtangular? Thanks

[@BruceBusby]

@@torbjrnaabergenes9971 the "c" is welded flat bar. Looks about 1/8". It should be gusseted for strength or cut out of c channel or boxed steel. It's much too weak

[@torbjrnaabergenes9971]

@@BruceBusby ok, i agree that by making it out of box section steel, it will be a lot stronger. I think i will be making mibe out of 5mm thick box section square tubing. Do you think that will work?
