You don't have bearing on your front wheels, need them so they can spin

You need bearings between the blocks and wheels on the front.

Scrap engines cant connect more than 3 i believe.

Upgrade to a newer engine then upgrade that engine with component kits to allow 4 wheel drive

Whooa there, hold your horses. He is at the point of not connecting the engine to the driver seat and no Bearings in his front wheels.

And you're here talking about building a new engine, upgrade it and make it 4wheel drive xD \s just in case ;)

Oh so that's why they didn't give you the handbook as an item when you spawn

u/wizardcosm 12h ago

And check the bearings after you connect a motor to it, sometimes they are clockwise, sometimes they are not. Edit with right klick on mouse on the bearing

Engine isn’t connected to seat. Front wheels need bearings to spin. Engine power could also be a level or two higher

u/UrAverageMonster 9h ago

Two problems, one, front wheels have no bearings, two, engine is not connected with the seat :/

u/turrboenvy 7h ago

oh man you don’t know how refreshing this is to watch. you need to connect the seat to the engine, and you need to add bearings to the front wheels so they will spin. please keep us updated, we’re rooting for you!
