Even Karts have splined connections.
Unless the bolts are pressed in there will potentially be slop.
That takes us back to roll pins.
If slop is the issue, how about using a sleeve retaining material in association with bolts? Is the problem with not using splines or double D fittings failure due to component failure, or failure due to improper assembly or parts substitution? Today, the proper solution seems to be tied to TIG welding. What was used prior to this technology?

Roll pins are squishy and will eventually develop slop (and crack) or shear.
Any kind of decent welding is fine and much safer for a slop free joining.
A fillet weld plus a couple of plug welds are going to be very hard to break, even gas brazed would be better than a pin or a through bolt(s).
