cyclekart Auto Union chain, engine mounted and first power to the wheels

first run after engine hard mounted and chain fit.
Steering column welding and quick release next, waiting on brake line delivery, bolt check and replace with correct length and grade, steering geometry check, tyre (tire USA) changing to get direction of rotation correct and then a test drive. getting near rolling.

    After watching this I had to go check out the front suspension build video. Looks like anti-sway bars work great for torsion bars, and it's fully adjustable...love it! I had a 1/4 midget kart once that had torsion bars but set up like an early Dodge car with the bars going front to back through the lower control arm, but I like this setup better and you could only adjust ride height on that one.

    Are you building this from plans? Looks great. This looks like the kind of project I'd love to build.

    Cyclekarts are pretty much built from scratch Dennis, cheaply using parts from many sources. Building them is as important if not more than cruising around in them with other cyclkartistas. Much more info on them here... www.cyclekartclub.com/

    I can't tell by looking; is there a differential in the rear? If not, do both wheels drive or just one?

    Probably no help. The rear axle is from a lawn tractor with a peerless 100 series differential in a 3/4" axle sleeves out by myself to 1", and keyed together. The tyres are honda cub 17" tyres x 2 3/4" from Maaxis
