I might use a 3 speed crank if I decide I need some gearing.

Check with Phil Wood, they do lots of wheelchair stuff and probably have something that will work.

Your right about that. But this will mainly be ridden in a strait line to the grocery store. Very few turns and they coukd be made gradual if needed.

If you want to avoid using a differential, just go with one-wheel drive, with a jackshaft arrangement to get the drive across to one rear wheel. Alternatively, use a front-wheel-drive MBB setup with undriven rear wheels. This would allow you to use wheelchair hubs.
