You need for the wheels in each module to be pointing in the same direction to work, obviously. It appears as if you planned on using belting that's common to two or more modules to achieve that.

I hope you've considered timing belt as an option or something else than won't slip. Slipping, over time, will throw off the alignment of your modules relative to one another.

More importantly, I don't understand how that belting is supposed to remain attached to a crab module that's going up and down on a suspension. Perhaps a better explanation of how the belting would interact with the frame and other modules would reveal how this works?
