Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

Man, that sounds awesome. I got mine at Harbor Freight. They had a huge selection at really good prices. Northern Tool also has a big selection but Harbor Freight is closer to me.

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

Saw another trike in the thread so I'll post mine. Built it from a 20" mountain bike a couple summers ago. The PVC sleeves lets the back end slide, so it's like a big wheel for grown ups.

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

Nothing custom about it, but my dad picked up this wagon for our daughter. (his first grandkid). It matches our last name.

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

This is a great thread. Here is one I built. Although it is not shown, we have a wooden handle from an old reel mower that we bolt to the back of the car so we can use it as a stroller.

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

Those are my exact same wheels, aren't they?

The one thing I didn't anticipate with this project is that my son is ALWAYS throwing a fit to go outside and play with the wagon, and after I finally let him, when I tell him it's to to come back in this is what happens:

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

Yep, they're the same wheels. Thats why I was wondering where you got them from.

Thumbs up Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

This is a old thread but I just got my grandson this kit. I going to match it to the full size 56.

I plan to buy a old body and build another one though to hot rod it up some.

Here is the kit from Speedway motors. I pick up a set of used go kart wheels &tires tomorrow for the other one I plan to build. I have to clean them up and polish them but for $30.00 I can handle that.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

Picked up these two today. They pull like a wagon...no pedals. Heavy little suckers. Don't know what I have in store for them but I showed a picture to my two year old son last night and he said he needs to ride in them!

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

The Jeep guys would go crazy over those! Can you tell if they are home made or mass produced?

Re: The Wagon and Pedal Car thread.

First off, diggin yours up above! Post 198 is my sons car at age 1.
I haven't looked real close at them because it is freezing outside but they almost have a homemade look to them. Heavier built then the other car we have. I'll get a better look when I get home from work tonight.
