I sold it on ebay for $75. Was a pain to ship.

Probably just as much for shipping as the purchase price.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

USPS shipping was actually more. I shipped it FedEx for around $40

A wrench similar to that is used on old IH Crawlers to undo a big nut on the final drive.  Did you look for any marks on it?

We had a couple 48" steel pie wrenchs but don't remember ever using them. Bout the only one who could use it would of been our lead plumber, he could use a pair of 36 inchers over his head and not blink an eye. He was powerful as a bull.

In our trade we call those guys that can handle big wrenches fitters.  If someone can't handle the 36" wenches, how are they going to be able to handle the big wrenches in the air?  We are partial to aluminum wrenches, though.
