If I can find them, I have a set of stock 250x shocks I would donate to a cool project. I’m guessing there around 14'' extended. They might me a little too big for what you want. Let me know if I can help

Awesome idea there Brandon!

Personally, I would be looking at something a lot more narrow and hard compared to gokart, 2 wheel truck, or golf cart wheels/tires. Going to be VERY HARD to push/navigate (impossible to steer) around on squishy/wide/ small diameter tires dude, no matter how cool they look    Mrs Nordic can plug in here any time she wants, but from experience, solid, hard wheels/tires are the way to go here, limited surface patch, etc.

Try and find some good lookin, SOLID wheelbarrow wheels/tires. With your skills, you can make them look trick!! And, just me, I would mount the seat using some old valvesprings to create a rocking action when using.........you'll thank me later for that one

Looks awesome but I will admit I would hate to pull or push that thing around. You gonna set it up like a wagon so you can pull it around and steer or rig some kind of steering handle from the rear?

I will definately take the shocks if you have them. Thanks

Well, now I feel like an ass. I went to pick up the shocks from our storage shed where they were not too long ago and I couldn’t find them, so I asked my dad about them and he said one of my brothers sold them recently. I’m sorry I got your hopes up and I will keep looking and see if any of my friends have some you could use.

I also wanted to mention I saw a guy at an auto swap a few years ago and he had a large radio flyer style wagon loaded with parts, but on the back axle he had a small Briggs & Stratton hooked up.  He ran a cable up the steering bar with a trigger for the throttle, and walked and steered this thing just like a regular wagon. If this gets to be too heavy or if you are pushing this thing up a lot of hills, you might be able to fab something like this to help out.  Just an idea…

how much does this thing weigh as-is?

roughly 50lbs

i have some old quad shocks if you need them?

Needs a ice chest

you need to add steering so that when she is old enough you can just drop in a briggs motor and she will have a bitchen gokart

I just acquired a 70's golf cart and it has 4 honey comb style springs and shocks. They are not a coil over style but if you trim a coil off either end you could probably stuff a shock through it and make some buckets or something like that. Their about a foot tall and the shocks seem to only allow 6 inches of travel. If you want em their yours.
