knock knock?

excuse my ignorance but whats the difference?

which state is pa ? jsut curious

yea a guy by the name of waggy has done it, dasbulliswagon did it and i know a guy on another forum that did it.

anyway I'm gunna get pete or one of the mods to delete this thread its just pissin me off because everyone knows i made the mistake and i do to and people just keep telllin me . and it seems noone wants me to take this on anywawy so I'm just gunna do it and not share anything untill its done so i can show everyone that it is possible.

thanks CW weve all gone over the reasons why i buggered up the welds on the frame and ive come to the thought that i didnt have the heat turned up high enoughas it was only on level 2 of 4. i was taking it easy on the heat because i didnt want to burn through the frame and create more holes. but I'm going to fix my welds next time i get working on it .

yea i ran my kawi atv untioll the gears destoyed themselves . i had to get s new diff

:agree:

your not gettingit?

of the gears havnt easten themselves up yet just replace the pinion bearing

a really easy way to hook up your chain on the manifold side is to take the manifold off then put the bolt back in through the link in you chain

whats with the street tiers on the front . are they the same size? if not theres why your front ends terin itself apart

the only one with a half decent frame is the one in my avater or my restoratin porject. but those welds did suck and I'm going to redo them as soon ad this snow stops. more likely tomorrow but anyway. i do trust my welding i can and have done wutie good jobs before i just messed up because i got too exitedand for got about some simple stuff. pretty much the extension cord and to low of a heat level. the metal i welded to was clean i ran a gringin wheel down the edge of the frame where i welded and before i put the steel in place i ran did the same thing on the top of the plate where i welded too and it was all shiney.

okay

how much would they cost?

man thats a PITA but why don't you just get another engine for it and swap? instead of destroying your 92. mauybe its related to the trouble youve been ahving lately?

were startin to et some snow here

I'm not scraed to go threw mud... on my quad this one isnt mine

this is a kawi bayou 400 ive weights it . it weighs 700 pounds fully ready to ride .

ive done a pretty good amount of welding before though man. ive welded scrap togeter . ive out toungues on trailers and ive welded on my atvs bumper. and thats just with the mig. ive done stuff on the tractor , weded the bumper onto this truck (don't ask it was dads idea) and again welded scraps with the arc. hers a picture of what i did on the trailer: those ones wasnt as pretty as the first ones but they are just as strong. the point I'm trying to make is that i just made a couple mistakes in my exitement yesterday. the first was using cheap extension cord , the second welding in the cold , and the 3rd not puttting my heat high enough. today I'm goin to do better because my exitement has worn off abit.

yea i now know the extension cord was abad idea . no we are not welders but we do know how to weld .my dad has done this before and I'm getting advice of him and the people on thsi forum.today I'm and going to use a shorter heavier gauge extension cord for my weld. i did grind my welds down abit and they now look better but befor i do anything else i am going to go over them with high heat. both me and dad are people who that if we don't know something we learn as we do it so this is one giant learning curve for me and i believe i will get better every time i do mjore on it and i will get a good job done.

might nered to trim abit too

we havnt gotten any snow lately its been too cold

i do its helpful

thanks man i know . i may be somewhat new to welding but i do know how to wed decently. me and dad were talking this morning and it seems i overlooked that i was running my welder off a long extension cord and in the cold which probably messed my welds up. but doont worrey I'm goin to fix them today
