We also have Tri drop axle dump trucks where they are just behind the cab and in front of the rear dual drive axles.
They look like all tires / axles and they steer when going around corners.

Oh and that above picture rear steering could just be steering / turning when the truck goes around a corner.

And just wait until one or more of those “steerable” drop axles get a case of the death wobble! FUN! Ask me how I know!

A lot like what Bad Chad did a while back. Just some people have more talent and motivation than others. Might all be wasted but they do it.

Those two above look better than what Bad Chad did but still think they are photo shopped, look as they could very well be doable though if you had the vehicles at your disposal ..big job though..

Sure, but the concept is interesting, like the Deora Dodge from the 60's.
