Just add 8 inches to the chassis.....make it a little longer so you can really enjoy it....what's the point of making something only one person can comfortably ride.....that sucks!!!!!
Btw, I bet Steel-It would sponsor you...... And they make the best finishes for cage, suspension, etc... finishes designed specifically for your needs. 👍
I still say you'd be better off with adding 1 foot to the frame,behind the sprockets,for leg room.You'll be able to tip the steering down a hair so it doesn't bind as well.You already need a piece of plastic between front and back anyway,so why not?
Disagree. Violates their whole objective from the outset to build one of the smallest 4x4's around. Common sense says at least give it a good run before making such a change.
Yeah I agree with another comentoryou sould just extend the frame by a foot that would give you the room you need without makeing it way too big yo look outa scale still great content as always
Guys here a cool tip for painting wheels when the tires are mounted, get a deck of cards and just slide em in between the tire bead and wheel, u can reuse em too after the paint dries
TINY LIGHTWEIGHT 4X4!!! Lots of people here seem to have forgotten what this started out as and the intended goal. This is the smallest power wheels car that power wheels makes. The goal of this project was to keep it as small, compact, and lightweight as possible while providing a single adult with 4 wheel drive. Stretching the frame would make fitting easier, but totally defeats the goal. These guys have done an excellent job. I'm impressed.
The way John sat on it at the end made with his legs outside of the interior made me wonder what if you did fold out foot pegs on the sides? Then you can rock that body while riding similar to the 3 wheelers. Also, in Michigan rolling on tractor paint works great and isn't messy like spray. We use it on off road and derby cars because its very cheap and durable.
awesome build! one suggestion that would really stand out: make a bonnet scoop on the hood. This would cover the engine up. For the windshield, you could use a piece of aluminum and then you won't have the problem of melting plastics 👍
I'm glad you guys are finally going to use some Chain Lube on one of your projects, at least. That chain Wax is the best choice. But, you've GOT to also start using a pre-filter over those foam air-filters. Never use a paper element filter in the dirt and especially wet muddy conditions. Use a good filter oil on your foam filters and put the pre-filter over that. And, CLEAN them after every good thrashing, too. I have an Outerwears pre-filter I can give you but, I'm sure Go Powersports has their version they'd be glad to supply for you. Get a bunch of them and put a clean one on every time you ride. PLEASE!
The other way around can be problematic. When the mut faces down, rocks, water and pebbles can fuck up the threads and make it difficult to open them. At least i learned that from restaurating my car
Great video. Long time watcher, first time commenter. I like to use "rebar tie wire" when hanging parts to paint. It's super cheep and just a quick twist to tie them off. Saves a lot of time fussing over a knot.
Long time viewer here, been here since Ike’s 50 dollar go cart. I love the new builds that are being made but I miss the old builds like the old radio flyer go cart and the barn finds. I would definitely like to see more of that! Keep up the good content👍
Cut out the hood and put it on. It will look a lot better than leaving the inside edge of the front fenders and grill exposed. Extending the length a bit will help with comfort and drivability too. It does look good though. Nice job in cramming all that "stuff" in such a small package.
You can make a floating chain tensioner. Take two pieces of flat bar of the appropriate length,drill a hole through one end of each and a slot on the other so you can adjust it. Put a couple of rollers on it and bam. It'll just ride on the chain,no need to anchor it at all.
Hey guys, really enjoy both yours and Ike's channels. As I was watching the steering struggle this time I got to thinking about the way many old cars set up their linkage. They often had their steering box toward the back of the engine with a push pull bar to 90° bell crank up by the axel to transfer motion from forward/back to side to side ... I'm the last guy to tell anyone how to do something....I'm not there in person to really say,. Just an idea for consideration
Another option is taking two ball type impact swivel sockets( if one doesn’t have enough angle)in place of the universal joints. Would be much smoother and maybe no binding.
Out of all the chemicals you guys inhaled, I would really recommend a mask when using self etching primer. That stuff's nasty. Great video guys! Stay safe :)
Bearings at all of the rotating metal to metal parts of the steering shaft(s) would significantly reduce rotational friction and would likely make the steering significantly easier; even with the excessive u-joint angle. Just a thought. I love your guys’ videos btw!!!
Just a suggestion.... You could put foot pegs out behind the front tires, John did look more comfortable with his feet outside of the body. More room for steering.
An easier way to prep the wheels for paint its to go to the dollar store and grab some cards. Sometimes they have jumbo cards for kids learning and what not. just slide them in between the wheel and tire and overlap them a good amount and youre set!
This windshield! Lol you guys are awesome, I hope you love making videos/mini everythings, are able to do it for a long time and make ridiculous money doing it.
Spray paint also comes in an invisible ultraviolet variety... Paint some invisible graphics/messages... on your creations that will only be visible under a UV (black) light. Could prepare stencils and paint on your friend's creations too and they won't know 'till they are illuminated by a blacklight lol.
So I was thinking if that steering still doesn't work out. You could build brackets to raise the engine a bit. And run a better angle directly under the engine. Could even fabricate a fake blower or something to make it look like a hot rod power wheel for if it has ro come out the hood of the power wheel body lol Love this channel so much and this is one of my favorite builds of yall so far. Don't normally comment but I love that yall also have yalls own ground to tear up now. These mini builds are so fascinating to me lol
I think you and grind hard plumbing are the too most honest youtubers I'm subscribed to yoh dnt bitch about other youtubers, you too are just honest people trying to make a living, lov the vids keep thm coming 👍
Solid black frame would look that much better! I don't get the bronze. I do however love that its 4wd and the new sprocket should make it a hill getter.
You could still use the Bronco hood/window frame...just trim it up away from the heat and it'll be fine. Make a heat shield and use header wrap around the exhaust to protect the plastic from warping. Problem solved.
Hey buddy... John & Isaac.... I'm very crazy to build a go kart in a tight budget... So I'm thinking using ... Honda cd 100(around 100cc) ... What are your thoughts on this....is it going to be a good on Or not??? Please do reply... Love from 🇮🇳 india ❤

Go-karts, mini-bikes, power wheels, crosskarts? Decisions decisions...
This needs to happen!!
BUILD OFF! BUILD OFF! BUILD OFF! BUILD OFF!
@Josh Aubrey lol normally i would agree but when they disagreed on the color it got me thinking. Cheers
@@rockwolfdesigns6384 hmmmm not sure. i personally would lkke to see minibikes but would be happy with anything.
Almost ready for the track! Considering its size, this thing has turned out great!
Yesssss. :)
Just add 8 inches to the chassis.....make it a little longer so you can really enjoy it....what's the point of making something only one person can comfortably ride.....that sucks!!!!!
I still can't understand why you haven't added a few extra inches to the frame length... 🤔🤷♂️
Btw, I bet Steel-It would sponsor you...... And they make the best finishes for cage, suspension, etc... finishes designed specifically for your needs. 👍
That came out the year I was born dammmmn

Even 6" would make it more comfortable for John, would probably need that 1' for Isaac.
Disagree. Violates their whole objective from the outset to build one of the smallest 4x4's around. Common sense says at least give it a good run before making such a change.
Couldn't agree more. I thought the same thing way back.
Yeah I agree with another comentoryou sould just extend the frame by a foot that would give you the room you need without makeing it way too big yo look outa scale still great content as always
Just split like a 1" piece of pvc and lay over pipes you think a chain could slap. It will act like a chain slide
PEX even better.
Just add a tensioner
I agree my dirt bike basically has a plastic bushing couple inches away over the chain in case it jumps
Guys here a cool tip for painting wheels when the tires are mounted, get a deck of cards and just slide em in between the tire bead and wheel, u can reuse em too after the paint dries
Nice tip.
Hells bells thanks buddy.

Deck cards are to small i like index cards more covrage less over spray
I just smear vaseline on the tires ....it just wipes off
Ever considered watching grindhard plumbing? They're the kings at this stuff and can teach all of us a ton
Translation: Yinz guys need a watch dem Grind Hard boys. Yinz look like dunces 'n 'at.
If you put running boards on it you'll have a place for your feet

You guys should build a sick mini chopper!
looks like you are still going to have issues with the steering.
I would have raised that steering chain up higher, so the steering wheel was horizontal.. No universal joints to bind up..
The way John sat on it at the end made with his legs outside of the interior made me wonder what if you did fold out foot pegs on the sides?
Then you can rock that body while riding similar to the 3 wheelers. Also, in Michigan rolling on tractor paint works great and isn't messy like spray. We use it on off road and derby cars because its very cheap and durable.
Glad you guys have kept it small per your original goals. It's definitely one of the smallest in class and that makes it unique.
awesome build! one suggestion that would really stand out: make a bonnet scoop on the hood. This would cover the engine up. For the windshield, you could use a piece of aluminum and then you won't have the problem of melting plastics 👍
You need to stretch that frame by 6 inches bruh.
Agreed, the body is already split, just add some "middle sections".
Love these slightly longer videos. Bronco looking great
That thing looks like a lot of fun!
Beautiful job on that body guys awesome paint job
The bronco chassis looks awesome and fits John well now you two should build an identical one for Isaac just a foot or so longer
So glad you guys are back on this project. It looks great. Wish that steering was a little better, looks like your turning radius is minimal.
Seeing this come together is awesome! I wanna ride it!
That beard is getting serious Ike, it looks good on you! Awesome build guys, keep it up
He should rename his channel "Ikes and Beards"...
"It expired in 1997" Is so, so much worse than: "It's from 1997"
Rather see John drink it
Damnit bobby
It’ll be fine. That’s just a “best by” date.
The LA Beast laughs at this challenge. Have a good day! 🤣
I agree with the windshield, it’s a must.
Been watching y’all since 10k subs and I have to say the filming and editing is almost flawless I look forward to every video
I agree ... it needs even a chopped up hood. It needs the windshield, and it needs to spread the gap of the body between the back and front.
At the high angle u-joint on the steering, it looks like you could use (2) 45 degree bevel gears instead of the u-joint. It would be a lot smoother.
All they would need is 2 bevel gears instead of the sprockets and chain. But that would make too much sense.
Love it! I so want to see a Grind Hard Plumbing Co/Cars & Cameras collab!
They could learn ALOT from GHPC...
Only problem is they live 2500 miles apart
Cool finaly I was waiting!
You can always make a Skid Plate for the Sprocket like Honda did on My 125 Atc and My 250R...🤟🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good call on the hammered paint! Love the look!!!
I'm glad you guys are finally going to use some Chain Lube on one of your projects, at least. That chain Wax is the best choice.

Just imagine if the chain for the steering came off at high speed...
Just a helpful tip I found out is you shouldn’t put bolts from bottom up then if the nut comes loose bolts falls out
Bolts from the bottom is the only way to do it on these gx200/clone engines. Don't have clearance to drop a bolt down from the top side.
So lose a bolt or a nut, no difference...and it could be the only way in some cases...
The other way around can be problematic. When the mut faces down, rocks, water and pebbles can fuck up the threads and make it difficult to open them. At least i learned that from restaurating my car

Nice work on the paint scheme. "Issac, It'll be fine!" :D But seriously, the black, and bronze colors work well together.
4wd is amazing for this small go kart.
Holy Cow the steering. Should just use ropes like "the Little Rascals' "
I'm almost done with my racing mower project
You should put it on youtube!
Make a youtube montage
th-cam.com/video/pme7FJo-5c4y/w-d-xo.htmly4
Awesome job on this it looks so good.... i wanna see an over powerd old school moped in the future
Y'all should make some DIAMOND PLATE door thresholds, to connect the body parts together.
That thing is turning out awesome!

I learn so much from these guys
From the looks of it your steering is in a bind somewhere.
Been following you guys since part 1 of the rat rod wagon build.
Give the camera person a high five ✋ they do a great job 👍
Dang I've never been this early before

Me neither.

honestly, if you guys took this same design and scaled it up to be bigger, itd have the potential to be a pretty sick trophy truck cart.
You can make a floating chain tensioner.

It'll just ride on the chain,no need to anchor it at all.
Hey love your videos guys keep up the good work almost to a million subscribers here we go
Gotta agree with Ike chain wax is the way to go. Only problem is it stinks almost worse than gear oil

I agree with John the color looks great
I luv that bronze color better then regular black
Good work guys.

You are spoiling us. I love it!
The White Wheels are VERY reminiscent of BIGFOOT! Good Luck finding THAT Body...😿

nice paint makes them go faster
Looking good! Thumbs down on the brown though, just looks rusty. I'm with Ike!
It’s looking great
you guys need to get or build a lift . my back hurts just watching y'all 🤠
i've said that for yrs. why are they working on the ground,when they can be standing up to do all these small projects
What sprocket is on the torque converter driven shaft? You could stick an 8 tooth on there to gear down and use a smaller rear for clearance.
Just a suggestion....
You could put foot pegs out behind the front tires, John did look more comfortable with his feet outside of the body. More room for steering.
The coke expired when I was 17, and I'm 41 now. Not sure I would do it Isaac!
Isaac: "It'll be fine."
I’d drink it. It’s probably still ok as it would be packaged in a sterile factory and it’s never been opened for pathogens to get in
considering coke can remove rust and battery corrosion, i doubt anything inside could grow to rot it....
It couldn't be more preserved given the sugar content.
The bronco has came so far
Great job guys👍
20:30 I guess they’re fully restoring the atc 70 now. Repairing the original fuel tank is a nice touch too
Good job! Really like the way it looks. If you can line up the front and back better, it would be good.
Hey guys looks awesome! Most complicated build yet! Would you consider builing a sit in 3 wheeler?
I love it. If John's not here he doesn't get a donut.
This thing is lookin sweet!
You could go with electrically actuated steering. It wouldn't take less space but it would mean you could put the steering where ever you wanted.
An easier way to prep the wheels for paint its to go to the dollar store and grab some cards. Sometimes they have jumbo cards for kids learning and what not. just slide them in between the wheel and tire and overlap them a good amount and youre set!

Hey have you guys ever tried painting rims with vaseline on the tires? You can just pressure wash the paint off. No need to tape off the tires.
john and Ike buy old ford lawnmower hub caps that will match i have a pair and i think they would look great on your bronco but you need to buy a set
I think you and grind hard plumbing are the too most honest youtubers I'm subscribed to yoh dnt bitch about other youtubers, you too are just honest people trying to make a living, lov the vids keep thm coming 👍
Any chance you can give it a body lift to get the clearance for the hood/windshield. Just for testing purposes...
I love the beard.
you could always paint the body dark red/burgundy with white trim.
Day 11 of hoping the mower will make a return
Ps: hi Mike :)
Looking at john sitting there with his feet outside the body thinking maybe some foot wells mounted outside the body would free up some leg room
Solid black frame would look that much better! I don't get the bronze. I do however love that its 4wd and the new sprocket should make it a hill getter.
