Boostinjdm's Pilot

[Carlriddle]

I got you, hadn't thought about the tooth size changing the sprocket diameter .  And depending on weight of buggy the two smaller chains/sprockets ( of good quality) should do the trick.

[Boostinjdm]

for my pilot, goal is 600lbs or less and 40hp to 80hp.  The last buggy I built was kind of sidewinder style somewhere around 35hp and 320lbs.  so I think my goal is reasonable.

WTH is the world coming to?  Closing riding areas to protect prarie dogs huh.  If they think those dogs are endangered they need to come visit Kansas for re-education.

What cv's are you using.have you checked what is available in bearings that size and cost? The seals will be pricey also. Just mentioning it in case you hadn't thought about that part.

Type 2 or 4 as stated previously .  I already made a list with part#'s, prices, sources.  I have it around here somewhere, but I'm going to leave it hidden till I can actually build something.  Off the top of my head I think 2 bearings and 2 seals where like $150 or $250.
That doesn't scare me, the machining is where the money will be at.  I'm working on that though (slowly, very slowly). I could prolly scrounge up some material if I knew somebody that had a VMC they wanted to test out (cough, cough) .

No, really though.  This project has been put on the back burner till I can get moved .  Right now I am still working on the house and trying to scrape together enough cash to buy another welder without the GF finding out. Got a job lined up that a Maxstar would make a whole lot easier.
