A tri-axle has two live axles and a lift axle.. if it's located in front of the drive axles, it's known as a pusher... if it's located behind the drive axles, it's known as a tag axle.

With a tandem axle setup (which is what tri-axles, quad axles, etc. are, albeit with the addition of dead axles), the driveshaft runs from the transmission output to the power divider. The power divider is a differential which transmits power evenly to both live axles.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
