For brakes, you might just want to get them off an old bike. Most go kart brakes are terrible. My grandpa spent a few bucks on his (he races go karts as a hobby) which has a master cylinder and a single two piston caliper.

ever thought about a tubular chassis? wouldn't be too hard to make and would seem more functional than something that looks like a golf cart. I was planning to make one until my dad decided to sell the house and move to a townhouse where i dun have a garage in houston.
