     Company called "Surplus Center" had a complete small axle assembly 
     with two motors and a pump built into it. They only wanted $700 for 
     it.:-( Would mount up neatly to go kart. They also had surplus 
     hydraulic motors, pumps, etc.

I am figuring out the parts to make a fluid drive for a go-cart.  Have 
a couple of ideas for transmissions and want to try them out.
