3 wheel conversions
Hey guys been lurking for a few weeks.just getting into carts.
Anyway trying to get my first cart project/build and I have found a few 3 wheeled carts but wanting to offroad with it and use it for a hunting rig I feel 4 wheels are the way to go. So my ? Is has anyone done any conversion like this and what kind of headaches am I going to have. |

Yes it can be done if you have the skills, basically you need to find a 4 wheeler though for parts. |

Re: 3 wheel conversions
i would keep looking for a four wheel I cant believer there is non around in your price range. I would think it would be easier to by a broke down four wheel one, then a runnning three wheeler and then convert it.

Re: 3 wheel conversions
How good are your welding skills, are they good enough to trust your life with?
If not, you're going to have to figure in the cost of a welder to attach the new front suspension on the cart. If you can't weld, I would honestly suggest holding out for a good deal on a 4 wheel cart, it'll be cheaper in the long run. -Scott H. |

Re: 3 wheel conversions
Thanks for the input.
I have decided to keep looking for the right cart. But as far as my welding and fab skills.i would say that i am above average. |
