I agree with the air brakes as possibility but looking at the pic it almost seems like the wheels dug in more on one side, as if they had spun backwards on that side. This would lend weight to the possibility of a driveline lockup.

If it's driveline then just pull the axle and tow away, brakes and cage and tow.

on WEDGE brakes, the cage bolt and some also a nut is under the dust cap, it takes a 9/16 deep well, the nut type turns one way to cage, the bolt type turns the other way

Bad news there in the pic but there is no parking brakes on the front so this was something else FUBAR

Not a front brake issue, the rears were locked so they were dragging it with the loader, the front did not like being pulled sideways to steer, so it popped off. After they caged the brakes the loading went fine, well all but missing that wheel.

So moving on with this, sort of like putting the pin in the surge brake to keep it from working on a trailer? Not exactly, but close?

Air brakes? Means you'd need a CDL to drive this, right?

And who said this couldn't be a learning experience for people?
