I wrote what I will describe as a really bad white paper about ours. I sew ours for our team. I can't sew. They work every year just fine.
Here is a video from 2013 for how ours work:

We use 1/4-20 bolts for all attachments. We built a steel bar that ran the length of the robot last year and all bolts went through that into the frame. At the front and rear, we drilled and tapped a steel bar and ran bolts through the frame into that.
