Once you get it working, you will limit the flex. As it is, you will flip one axle over, and won't have any suspension to hold the wheels down. Also, you need links. This chassis design needs links to work.

Your chassis is only fixed in one position at the top of the axles. When you go crawling you will need something in place to stop your axles rotating.
