The crane has been completely dismounted.

Default Front Axle Details PLEASE??

Was at a local scrap yard yesterday, and what looks like an ex-military front drive axle assembly has shown up on the pile. Cast center housing with 6 bolt flanges for outer ball/steering ends. Rear drop-out differential that looks to be a double geared "deep-reduction" system. Air Brakes. Clevis type tie rod ends instead of spherical type. 10 bolt wheel flanges.
Have an FWD front end at the far that I will compare it to today, but if You could post a picture of the front axle in this truck, especially of the knuckle ends, and the driveshaft / differential, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks
