Thanks. I like that part, and have recently bought many for future
creations. They are amazingly strong, and connect very tight.

The driver wheels themselves are red spoked lego wheels form the 70's
painted grey. The rods are a combination of 1x6 technic plates, 1x2 plates,
and 1x8 tiles, and technic minifigure feet (to connect to the driver). In my
newer version (no pics yet), a hinge is built in the driver rod system to
enable corners and switches.
