Re: Melex 212 Before and After
Drive train updates: I battled through a few changes with adding a # 41 sprocket. Got the brake and gas pedal installed and the chain on. I was feeling pretty awesome until my maiden voyage and the chain slips... reason is slight slack in the chain due to movement in the axle and frame of the cart. That is due to mehaving the engine installed on a frame that is attached to the cart frame and that moves independently from the axle... Potential solution: chain tensioner��️*♀️
Here is a break down of my progress.
1. Go power sports torque converter with 10T #41 sprocket.
2. #41 54T driven(axle) sprocket.
3. #41 chain with supplies (cain breaker and chain tensioner) for install.
4. Brewer T22 automatic chain tensioner with a 19 tooth 1inch bore idler sprocket.
Installation of tensioner is in progress and I will post my success or failure.
By the way, i was able to get my front steering solid by adjusting the tie rods to the pittman arm. Also reattached the brake and gas pedals and the are fully functional. Just have to get this chain right...
