Look on market place for cars parting out and get you some cheap metal for skid plates and other accessories. You can also look 4 go cart parts to fix the tow on your front tires . They also have spring loaded spindles where your wheel mount on another excellent idea. Also you could mount rear go kart shocks on your rear axel to frame .. you could replace that belt drive cog for a juggernaut to sprocket set up instead of the current clutch system your using . Just some ideas for ya . And good luck .

for race mowers, i always use some 10w40 or similar viscosity hydraulic fluid. that grease will slowly expand, then burn with speed and time. one of my old poulan race mowers is still being used almost 14 years now, won a race and had a top speed of 52. good luck and i know yall are having fun!

He was talking about it leaking out the shaft, does that happen with yours? If so what do you do about it?

When you were welding those fenders with the mig , you were traveling the wrong direction. MiG welders are designed to push not pull cause the job of the gas is to shield the weld from impurities.

Can you make a turbo on the lawn mower❤
@eddiestevenson-kaatsch63063 ай бұрын
Try heavy tractor gear-oil, the stuff that goes into vintage tractors. It's very syrupy, but still has some flow, plus it will stay in the box. You only need enough lube to get at least one of the lowest, smallest gears to touch the surface and drag it into the system. Too much and you're creating drag that turns engine power into heat while losing it for forward motion.

Amazing man, i got the same mower, slightly different but same era, but also did you put your battery under the gas tank? And how big of a battery do you have? Im trying to figure out battery placement and stuff for mine, and also i might use your idea of shifter too because that seems relatively easy to do it that way, love the build.
