I know you want to do it non-kit style, but you might be able to get some parts near you.

I see you are on the Farmington Hills team. At the corner of Orchard Lake and Grand River, behind the carwash, next to the Wendy's - is a place that sells parts for motorcycles, snowmobiles and GO-KARTS!!!!

I've never been in, but I see them moving go-karts and such in and out, and I think they sell parts. (Sign says so.)

They should be able to at least supply you with some parts, or at least you can go in and look around and get some ideas.

Good Luck!!

(P.S. - I coach on the Canton/Plymouth/Salem team, but I live in Farmington Hills.)
