Default 5 or 10 ton chassis

Bought a project trying to decide if its worth taking on or should I part it out. How do you tell the difference between a 5ton and 10ton chassis? Pumkin comes out the back on front axle, single rear axle, 10 lug semi pattern. Are these front axles hard to get parts for?

don't know if its a 10 ton but its not a 5 ton . A 5 ton would have 5 ton rockwells under the frame

That is the Timken-Detroit power train from a 4-5 ton WWII Autocar 4x4 tractor if I am correct.
