Re: Volvo F88 concrete mixer
the drum could be rotated by a handle before it was motorized, so the guy that built this just removed the manual handle and put the sprocket that connects to the drum on the shaft of a geared motor.
as for the rear liftaxle: this is the most used setup for a truck in norway, it saves weight over the 6x4 setup.
rear lift axle comes in both twin wheel and single wheel setup, with single wheels you can also have steering on the real lift axle.
