Center drop: 1/8"

I know there are a couple problems with it already. Using the extended output shaft, we still don't have enough room in the wheel well to run 2 loops of chain. Other than machining a longer outputshaft, are ther other easy fixes? Also, I am not completely familiar with how to use some of the stuff from Andymark: do I need to use 2 hubs on the driven wheel, or do I just need a hub on one side? If I only need one hub, I think we can make the chains fit, but it will still be close.

Are the gussets enough to keep it square? Are there any other problems I should be aware of?

Nice! Looks.... traditional. :|

Great simple 6 WD! Looks very robust.

Could you get away with flipping the outside C channel pieces and running the chain inside of them?

We have never used more than one AM hub per AM wheel. We have used plaction, plastic omni-wheels and mecanum wheels with this setup and have never had a problem.

You could use the 6" performance wheels, which already have the keyed bore on them.
