Re: Wheel Designs

Attach the bigger sprockets to the kit wheels with 8-32 nuts and bolts (get these from a hardward store). Then attach the small sprocket to the output shaft of the transmission. Secure it to the shaft with shaft collars, or get some new sprockets with set screws built in. Then run your chain from sprocket to sprocket, lay it out and make a mental mark of what link will connect the two, with some slack. Break the chain and connect the two halves with a master link, and you're set.
