Use MSC Direct or McMaster Carr or KartWorld.com.
Buy # 35 chain plate sprockets (no hub needed).
Drill a circle of holes using the wheel flange as a template.
Bolt directly to the wheel flanges.

No! You can not use just plate sprockets. The #35 chain will rub against the wheel if you do not have the hub on the sprocket. The hub (1/4" hub projection) on the kit sprocket is the shortest I recommend and still have the chain be a safe distance away from the wheel.
