Looks like it could be from something like a crawler crane or something like that, the pads on the tracks looks like excavator pads tho'.

Very kool! Used to build the 18,000 series crawlers for Manitowoc Crane Group. 7 feet tall, 7 1/2 feet wide and about 38 feet long. 90,000 pounds or so and they hauled them out on Phantom aluminum flat beds with two 4x4’s front and rear. One guy came in and wanted the timbers at the center of the trailer, brand new trailer had only made one run with it. We told him you’re not gonna want the timbers there you’ll blow the back bone out of the trailer but he insisted! Next time he came down to load up he told us he had a brand new aluminum paper weight he’d sell us!! Brand new trailer became scrap in one haul. If he’d only listened!! 

Like these crawlers though!! Would like to get a couple myself for loads!! Now if I could only build a carrier as nice as yours!! Lol
