Here is our brake cable setup.
You can achieve a much cleaner setup by using the Azusa brake kit (Part# 2279).
This is how the other end of the brake cable attaches to the
caliper.
Here is the throttle cable
setup we fabricated using a cable. Azusa's throttle kit works
great because it incorporates a throttle rod
(Part#2278).
You will need different
throttle cable setups with different engines. This is how we
setup our throttle cable on our 6.5hp Honda clone. You can see
a different setup in our other free go kart plans. Also check
out
www.affordablegokarts.com for throttle setups.
Flip your frame over
and cut out a piece of sheet metal for the floor. We
drilled all of the holes for rivets and put the sheet metal
floor to the side to be mounted later.
It's time to finish all of your welds
and prep all of the metal for paint.
After the paint has
dried, it's time for my favorite part, putting the go kart
together. We started with all of the steering
components. Here you can see the spindle has been
bolted in place as well as the tie rod. The spindle
axle has a spacer and washer in place so the rim and tire
have adequate clearance from the spindle arm etc.
