Have you also given thought to how this would affect any manipulators? The two segments pivot a lot in regards to each other, that looks like it'd be quite a hassle.

The only complexity is the ball differential. The rest is off the shelf items. The ball differential must have an adjuster to tension the slippage. I have some ideas on how to do it. For the suspension I am not sure at this time how much movement to allow or to add springs to help control the movement. I have to build it first to find out.
