A driveshaft complete with universal joints was welded to a wheel that fit the truck and a wheel that fit the mixer. The mixer was put on blocks under the truck side, with the other wheel secured with a piece of 4x4 angle iron bolted to the lugs and buried 3' in the ground. The truck had a block under the axle on the shaft end. This setup worked fine for ten years. Just last week my son came and took away the old truck, shortly after I put the mixer back on wheels for tow mixing again.
This picture was within a day or two of welding the shaft, and before I ran a permanent water line to a valve on the tank, and plumbed in a 2" trash rated pump.
Don't let OSHA see this photo! That spinning shaft and wheels should have had an enclosure around them. That orange painted board was far from adequate for safety. Nobody was injured in that decade, so no worries.
