Can you use lawn mower wheels on a go kart?
YES, if you use the larger size tires.
Can a lawn mower engine power a go-kart?
Most 5 to 7 horsepower engines will fit a standard size kart. The vertical shaft engine you choose can be from a riding mower or a push mower, either will work for your go-kart. Larger engines in the 13 to 22 horsepower range, which you can find on riding mowers, may destroy the transmission or kart.
Is it hard to build a go-kart?
A go-kart is a small vehicle with a simple design, a small body build, four wheels, brakes, and an automotive engine. It is also known as a kart, a gearbox/shifter kart, and an off-road buggy. As difficult as it looks, they are somewhat easy to build on your own.
