Hello everyone, we just picked up a 2012 Hammerhead Mudhead last week (and 2 Coolster 150cc utility quads) for a song. The kart is in good shape and we had it running quick. The quads are another story, but that’s not why I’m here, lol.
So we had it out running hard yesterday for the first time. It performs great but has one big drawback; ground clearance! We live in southwest Pennsylvania, so we have to contend with hills, ruts, bogs, downed trees, rocks... you know, all the fun stuff
The main issue is the darn chain guard being an inch off the ground...
Has anyone tried putting larger tires on the stock wheels?
What about larger wheels and tires?
Mods like atv hubs on the stock axles?
What’s sizes can I go with without sacrificing too much power?
I know rubbing will big potential in the front.
Also the chain guard is now bent and looks like it is contacting the chain.
Anyone tried to bend it back? A few blows with a 32 oz hammer didn't do anything...
Thanks everyone!
Oh a how about a pic of the buggy?
