I am wanting to Build a go kart. I have wheels but they don‘t have a keyway. My wheels are 1 1/2 inch and I have the same size solid rod. If I put the sprocket on and run the motor the wheels spin free. Do I weld the wheels to the rod? Plz help Thanks
Use the same method as the sprocket.
if we weld we cannot remove. having a keyway cut in shaft and wheel may be a better alternative. however any small engineering workshop will advise and likely undertake work for you.
