You must have a nice machine shop set up. That sure would make it lots of fun.

Wish I had a nice machine shop set up. Just a bandsaw, a jigsaw, and a hand drill! They get the job done so no complaints lol!

Ride stance.



And then you take that body off and there is all that emptiness. That roll cage got to go or grow up and fill up the front space, lol!

Got delivery



Box 1 Jetpro MCD V4 pipe





Box 2 ... I didn't even get to it yet. Reason being that unfortunately the jetpro pipe doesn't fit. The loop in the back is too high and wide out. Bummer... Emailed Dino@jetpro, will see what happens.

meanwhile...

Awsome works,
I need to replace my oem carburetor.. Do you know if the walbro 668 is a good one for my 30cc engine?

 

[looker2756]

If you like the choke feature than Yes the 668 is a good choice.

Like looker2756 said if choke is what you want it's a good carb. If you don't mind not having choke then 990 is a great carb.

Problem solved (theoretically). I'm moving the whole center drivetrain including the engine and gas tank 20mm to the right.

Sorry I didn't see your post. I cut it with a bandsaw. A jigsaw works too but it's harder. The key is to find the perfect blade with the best TPI (teeth per inch). I tried several one before finding the best one as the thickness of the aluminum also affect the appropriate TPI.

Wow thats a really nice project.
Hats off sir!

You may want to upgrade your front and rear diff housings. With those tires and that chassis, youre gonna destroy them.

Or a better idea, since you have a machine, fabricate one that uses MCD RRv5 diff cups and CVDs.
