i.d kart please is this a bug?

Post by david a luciani » Mon Feb 11, 2008 3:20 pm

hi finally got a workable solution to camera problems. :)
here is one of the karts i'd like to rebuild.
my question is do i replace the front axle or leave alone.
i'm leaning towards replace.
if so where can i get one?

thanx dave

Sure looks like an early Bug. If the axle was bent and rewelded all around I would replace it. K&P MFG is making reproduction karts so a front axle should be easy to get......but lots of work to install.
