Not sure where to post this?

I am a wagon guy, the horse drawn kind. I just saved and old steel running gear from certain death in a field. Apparently in the 1930s this old 1890s bettendorf was called back into service and some axles were welded on it. Does anyone know what they are? I am happy to offer free rides for helping!

 

I will post some better pics today.

 

Make them bigger

 

Some more pictures. I think they welded car axles on the wagon.

 

Dodge wavy axle

 

Thanks, that's great! Any idea when they where made? Any wild ideas about the back? Looks like its had more than one over its life.

 

Story was it was converted during the great depression.

 

The rear axle looks much more modern.
I’m thinking rear hubs off am 80’s fwd car.

 

I think someone changed it out because there are old brackets. There are numbers but I can't get them to come back to anything.

 

Blurt but its got a diamond with an s in it. I will get some more pics.

 

The backing plates and hubs are defiantly off a fwd car.

my guess with the square flange and torx bits either a Buick or olds fwd car mid to late 80’s.

by the mid 90’s most GM stuff had rear disc brakes.

 

Oh, almost missed it, of course it’s a Dodge

 

Story was during the depression they fixed a wagon that the wheels rusted off the bottom of because the cars were useless...dont know if that even remotely sounds reasonably true lol

 

You were 100% spot on. Found a date code of 83 on them. Looks like some tried to replace the old axle at some point.
