According to the Karting World 1200 test, Oct. 62, 0 degrees camber, 0 degrees kingpin inclination, 14 degrees caster and 31-1/2" front track width. If I were building spindles, I'd use 5/8" axles with sealed wheel ball bearings, 1/2" kingpins with bushings, and angle the steering arms outward as far as you can and make sure the tie rod ends clear the tires. The 800 had a narrower track, but the 1200 is a better handler. The extra axle length outboard of the frame rails allowed more flex, but, remember, the Go karts were always prone to getting the axles bent back, and the extra length may well enhance that "bendability".
