lift axle question

[gotnitro?]

The mixer I'm working on has a lift axle that I need to scratch build, and curious of the manufacture to have a better understanding of what I'm building. I am new to trucks so the major parts confuse me!

here's a photo of the lift axle

any help welcome!

TIA Jeff

Thanks...I've already Google lift axle. It's a tag..behind the drive axles on an Oshkosh front discharge mixer that. Just curious who makes the real one for better images
