It would appear that the two rear roadwheels are actually the front idlers adapted to road wheel service. They look thinner than the front wheel.
In the photo of the engine, you can still see the old rad mount holes on the carrier frame. With the space used up by the t-case, the rad must have been relocated into the pocket formed at the front of the carrier. And there is also a brace running from one of the old gas tank holes over to the rear double roadwheel unit. Looks like a brakesteer only unit.
If any company did re-manufacture these, brakesteer only never did last too long. My money is on a farmer mod. And if so don't let the engine throw you, a farmer will use whatever engine is handy and still running. If any company had done this, you would think they would have at least put the tow hooks back on the top.
