It looks like every piece of AL is needed, keep in mind that you have 6 modules and you need support for each and every one of them. Here you need a frame, 6 module mounts, 6 modules, transmission mounting, and sprocket and chain hardware. Swerves are heavy by nature, so in comparison to a regular swerve this one will be about 50% more heavy than a 4wheel swerve.
p.s. to the OP, great job I like how this one can shift! I have also seen the 4wheel version of this baby and it look great! keep up the good work.
