    Finally a post that i know something about! You don't need to increase the speed of the front tire per say, you only need to allow it to speed up. Rokon have a spring clutch that lets the front tire turn faster than the rest of the drive line. You could modify a rokon if you wanted a 3x3 but you won't be setting any land speed records with it. Also, the driveline was designed with a 8-10HP motor in mind, start pumping more power through it and you're gonna have problems. Post #5 in this http://forums.delphiforums.com/rokon...es?msg=15058.1 link has some pictures of 3 different ways to go about 3 wheel drive. Actually, i lied, the first one is 5 wheel drive, but you get the point. Enjoy

    I have been dreaming of doing a 3x3 for quite some years. Eventually it will happen. So far, from trying to think of different ways to drive the front wheel, I am thinking of going with a teleflex drive cable, driven off the rear axle, run it up through the frame, then to a gear on the front axle. Rigid frame of course. Will use a 110 with the hi-lo range for it.

    lmao. I read that thread a while ago but forgot about that. The rokon guys are generally non 3 wheeler friendly. If you guys saw the 110 that the one guy cut up to make his hondakon you'd shed a tear.

    Riverrat,if you're gonna go through all that trouble you'd be better off taking a putting a 110 motor in a rokon and then making it into a 3 wheeler. Neither of them have suspension but you have probably 6 inches more ground clearence with a rokon
