The reason I went with live axles is simply because I have designed a live axle wheel. I will be making a dead axle of the same wheel and making a dead axle version of this.

Thank you for the notes. I will be taking all of them into account as I go over this design again, and again, and again.

The AndyMark shifter in your CAD rendering looks just like the imported STEP file, which doesn't really have any mechanical properties. Open each individual part of the imported STEP assembly (they were all converted to .sldprt files), set the correct material, then manually set the CIM motor weight to 2.75 lbs.
