I build an electric go kart for my daughter. It doesn't have a solar panel but its fast




a 24v 350w electric scooter motor overvolted to 36v, it uses (3) 12v 10Ah SLA batteries. Live axle, uses a hall throttle box for real working throttle pedal, and disc brake.

 

just did my lift last fiday and got my alignment all green, just have to pull and redo tint for the front driver and passenger and some shmall kine garden flares to be recon ready on nov 5th....crossing my fingahz 6 inch maxtrac with 5100 billies, blocks and shock in da back, extd front and rear brake lines...ima change out to leafs and billies for the rear as soon as the shocks crap out. i figured i paid for it so might as use um since its a Asphalt crawler/pavement pounder....any other suggestions?

 

brah thing is cherry, how much would you charge to build another one? would like my son to cruz that thing at bbqs...PM me lmk if its possible

 

one more for a side view, sorry crappy pics but ill get better ones this weekend

 

That red wagon is pretty badass!

Took a day off today so I could spray my bumper with the duplicolor bedliner. Looks pretty good! I've used this stuff on my Monster Mule project on the floor of the cab and really liked it.



My makeshift spray booth

 

looks good!

 

Iven truck is looking sick with the custom light hoops on the plate bumpers looks sick

 

Damn! I'll have to look into that propane conversion!

The gene gives you piece of mind most of all. And when the power does go out, you become the neighborhood favorite. But the eu2000 is quiet enough that you can chain it on the back porch and only the guy right behind you will know its eve running.

I also heard they make an exhaust hose kit, so you can run it in the garage.

I think the last one I got was $950 at aloha power's end of summer sale. Their normal prices are a little high, but they have always taken care of me when I run into a problem I can't fix on my power equipt.

Looks great! I think that's what I'm going to spray my bumper with.

 

I looked that that at Costco.. May be decent, but not to run a refrigerator in case of a outage. Also, looking at the specs, it takes along time to recharge that battery (with the included panels). I was even looking at a 2400 because the spike on a refrigerator may even be more than 2000. BUT... everyone that has a 2000i have had no problems with the compressor staring spike, so I am leaning that way. Yes.. For about $400 you can have the tri-fuel mod done. That way you can run gas, propane, or even natural. That is probably the route I would go.

That thing is bad ass.. Maybe we should do a wagon mod day and you can help all of us make one for our kids.. lol.

 

Finally empty out the oil catch can after 1200 miles since installation this is what came out of the Oil Catch Can. Also installed my 1 gallon air tank next to my ARB Compressor and finally installed a Big Bad Max Horn. Need to start a build page lol

 

That's a lot of blow by! How's the horn sound?

 

It's ok louder then stock. Next week Sunday you can hear it.

 

Aiight. I might want to get a catch can too. Next group buy.

 

I might try to make my own soon...

 

can check my spare out if you need a closer look

 

Dude, I'm thinking you should hang your spare tire facing up instead. Even with a nylon ring, your wheel will still get scratched up from dirt and sand getting in between. Give me some dimensions when you got time.

 

I just found a new toy!!! That thing is bad ass! Can you write a build page for it? I would like to make one... Or buy on off of you...

 

What is the is the reason you added a oil catch can to your rig? I have never seen one of these.

 

It is installed between the positive crankcase ventilation (pcv) valve and the intake manifold. All the vapors including oil and water mist are sucked into the engine for combustion. This is for emissions, and all the oil can gunk up the intake tract, valves, and even a supercharger if you have one. On some cars it gunks up the idle air control valve, depending on where it is re rerouted into the intake tract. The catch can filters out some of the oil and water via a mesh or screen and cooling of the gasses.
Blow-by, caused by pressurized gasses going around piston rings, causes this positive crankcase pressure. Blow by can be greater with forced induction, so that's probably why he has one installed.
I have one sitting on the shelf waiting to be installed...too many things going on.

 

Thank you! Are they worth imputing an a non SC truck?
