Transmission failure
Also it turns out my front right break is seized from rust again😭 I’m putting wheels back on so that I can tow it to that shop on Friday and I had forgot to lower the truck so it doesn’t spin while I torque the lugs down, and I fully torqued them down without the wheel spinning.
Shippers can get a truck to you a-okay. That problem is solved.
A rust belt truck that’s been rotting at rest? No thanks, Chief.
My first car was a ‘69 Beetle that had been rotting away in a field for years before it was bought for me. The Swiss cheese looking floorboard should have been someone’s sign, but I wouldn’t chance that myself. Oh well.

Maybe make sure it's not just the front brake hoses locking the front brakes up?
The clamp that holds the brake line in place rusts and pinches the hose partially shut
You can either replace the brake hoses or relieve the pressure on the hoses by opening up the clamps with a big screwdriver
Take your biggest screwdriver and open up the clamps holding the brake line in position, then see if the wheels are still locked up
No need to replace the brake hoses, just open up the clamps
