This axle came under a grain truck bed that was cut down into a trailer. No identifying markings on either the remainder of the truck frame or the axle itself. I’m trying to source a diff cover and brakes for it to make it functional again.

Dual wheel, 10 lug, 20” wheels with what look to be 18” drum brakes.

After trying the cup style filter wrench, then a strap, then the pliers, I finally stabbed it with a screwdriver, and needed to rotate it more than a full turn before I could turn it by hand.

Not pictured: the 1/2” ratchet needed to get the drain plug out

Was being used to drive the hydraulic pump, trying to decided whether to try to get it running, or just go electric

Gonna try to get it up and running, any tips or advice appreciated
