Hello David,
Many thanks for the reply.
I´m sure that the crane was from australian made source, all the photos were from there. As for the maker, from what I had searched, it was built on purpose, and I had seen a lot of smaller cranes using the same type of main wheels structure and carriage connection, to a tractor rear, instead of a truck, as seen on some posts. My toughts are that they were made by the same maker.
It would be fantastic that someone take a complete photoset of one of these things, along with a few mesures... and surely, if someone restore and preserve one it would be great too
