The transmission on our BMW K100 powered 1000cc trophy kart build went out, and today we're fixing it! The transmission on this mini trophy truck wasn't too hard to access and replace. Then, we take it out for a rip!

@todorow22 3 жыл бұрын

Ya. Linkages are heavy. modified the stock shift arm so it can be pulled up/down with cables. The you can mount a shifter anywhere, use springs to keep the shifter centered and you can make sure there is never any pressure on the shifter arm. They are tight for room, so do what they did in the 30s put it on the outside of your right side and cage around it.

Lowering the front shocks upper mounting locations by a few inches will help with that excessive camber and caster angles caused by the bottomed out suspension ride height...pkus make the kart more manageable handling wise with less input required to control it..then adjust the toe to just barely toe out...

@MatthewBerginGarage 3 жыл бұрын

You need to replace the U-joint at the rear-end with a CV joint. It will solve the drive issues and allow for more rear suspension travel. U-joints only work in pairs over small and, more importantly, equal angles. That is why they use CV joints for wheels that steer.

Gentlemen, You've done a fine job with putting together these karts, each one unique and fun! I absolutely love your creativity! Your channel is called Cars And Cameras, may I suggest its time to build something even closer to a full size vehicle, a car, like a bigger badder trophy truck that you can confidently beat on? I like where John's head is at with building something you can dump the clutch on. I am not, however, suggesting a transition away from karts. You gentlemen have the skills, resources, and ambition to do it big. You have successfully built a spectrum of vehicles; keep pushing that final boundary!

I’ve been watching cars and cameras for pretty long time. I’m gonna say that this is my favorite episode so far. I know it’s a while ago but I bounce around between videos When I can. You guys have always been great. But seeing the intern drive the car how respectful he was about it. And how the two of you were standing there not knowing what to expect but letting it happen. It appeared to me to be three generations of builders in the making. One very experience builder who’s always exciting to watch in Isaac, John who is such an amazing mechanic builder much more but always looking to learn more, and then to see the intern just seeming to be excited to be there included and eyes wide open to possibility. Not to mention seeing this trophy 🏆 truck built from an idea?!!!! Great channel follow them everywhere. Good luck all blessings

@jeffmason7735 3 жыл бұрын

Have you thought about trying to use a PTO cable for your shifter? They are setup for pushing and pulling. This should eliminate the majority of the linkage slop and allow you tighten up your shifter significantly. The project is looking very nice. I hope this helps.

Man that thing reminds me of a mini Chenowth FAV from the late 80s ish!!! Awesome. For what its worth, in the world of shifter linkages or linkage ideas/sources, Ive used a three piece bicycle crank and bottom bracket assembly with much success in a couple applications. The crank arms are usually high quality aluminum, and super strong, so welding/machining/tapping etc is easy. You can usually index them from the standard 180 degrees to a, ahhhhh, custom angle pretty easy. They are very smooth due to ball bearings, and depending on how you cut the frame and the frame material, your mounting options are basically infinite. Much leverage can be obtained if needed by lengthening one arm etc. Of course, having a supply of trashed bicycles helps! I would think a one piece crank could be used as well, I just havent tried it. Just an idea, keep up the awesome content!

Lift it a few inches up front when you fit the better shocks, too, and I think you got it guys! The engine/trans/gearing ratio seems really Trophy Truck-like. That's awesome! When you hit it, it goes RIGHT NOW! With a lifted front end, it will behave much more like a trophy truck. I would still love to see some mini trophy truck body work on it, after you upgrade the shocks/suspension.... 😉

Hi guys! So for europe guys "transmission" is a system which transfer power from the engine to the wheels or another assembly. The gear box is the same thing but it has more than one selectable gears 😉

Do a Chevy 350 kart. Or an LS kart. Maybe on a lawn tractor frame so you can use the body panels and have a V8 lawn mower kart. Not all high up but lower it and stretch it. Just throwing out ideas. Here's the kicker make it still able to mow and give it to pops to mow the house with. See if he's annoyed with the speed or if he gets it done in record time.

Absolutely awesome vid guys. Also Unless your on pavement then you’ll nvr ever ever be able to load your “Cush drive” like it would in a bike on the road. Bike weighs 600-800 lbs maybe more plus 2 riders at 350lbs on pavement giving it all the torc it has. You’ll not be able to replicate that kind of load seeing you’ll nvr have full traction like the bike would. If you put slicks on it and can launch with enough traction to lift front tires and able to bang gears with front tires in air then you’ll be replicating the load as it was in a bike with 2 riders on it. Your good guys in history of bike engine on go cart the engine has nvr ever been the weak link. Unless you start with a sloppy output sprocket.

@reviewaccount469 3 жыл бұрын

I would have put shifter below your right hand next to the seat. Looks like plenty of room, and you could keep your hand on it while driving. For that to work though, you'd need quicker ratio steering you could do with one hand. Now that I've watched you drive it, I suppose it doesn't much matter where the shifter is because you need both hands to steer it.

Maybe not making incredible power, but it's gonna be reliable, and sound amazing. Could possible add in 4x4. Who knows?

Yep one or two degrees of camber max and two degrees of toe in would make it handle sharper, and boys that thing is fast so add a three or five point harness, remember that the upper belts should be more or less straight back so an extra bar will need to be welded in in front of the gas tank don't get the ones that need eyes welded to the frame, better as the eyes could pull off in a hard impact, and maybe window nets to keep your arms in when it roll's over, and an emergency cut off would be good.

I know the halo on the cage is like that for ease of getting in but it is not safe. With the speed and weight of the kart. If it rolled the cage will fold in on your head and hurt you bad. Needs to have a x in the top to keep the corners from folding in.

There's in car video from a recent Legends car crash where the front of the roll cage folded down around the steering wheel trapping the driver in the car. He was extremely lucky in a number of ways, and being on track had the benefit of having rescue personnel on scene pretty much immediately. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sNWFdMt7rtfbdJ8.html Watch that and imagine what would happen if the trophy truck rolled at the far end of the C&C gran prix circuit and sustained similar damage.

Also all street bikes have a Cush drive it’s just usually in the rear rim and looks pretty much the same as your bmw one but yours is engine/drive line mounted and most other bikes are rear rim mounted. But nvr the less they do same thing. And pretty much are built the same as well. I see it being no more issue then any other bike as all bikes have the Cush drive. Untill you hear a metallic clack there good and new bushings around 50$ depending for most rear wheel mounted Cush drive rubbers prolly not much more for your set up .
