1: Go to more of a wildstang setup and support the system on the bottom as well
2: Run a pair of straps around the wheel right where the lower axle is. This would join the forks together, and give you more support on the bottom side where it would be prone to bending

Also, how do you plan on on tightening the chain to drive the wheels themselves, or do you plan on using spur gears like the beast does?
I would personally swap your setup between the steering and the drive: aka, use the timing belt for the drive of the wheels, and the chain for the steering, but that's just my opinion. Good Job, that is a real nice looking setup though.

About bending of the wheel forks: There are three standoffs there, not easily visible. The whole thing would be made of 1/4inch hard anodized 7075, so it'd be pretty strong.

As for tensioning, ever seen 118? Floating idler is all I have to say.
