The differential is driven from the transmission output shaft. The ring gear turns the carrier which moves the spider gear shafts #45080DA (end over end) with a spider (bevel) gear #361061R1 on each shaft end driving the side (pinion shaft) gears #361060R1. There is no other connection between the left and right wheels than the side gears, the spider gears and the spider gear shaft.
The possibilities as I see it are:
1}If either side gear was frozen to the carrier it would lock the sequence of gear motion.
2}if the spider gears were frozen to their spider shaft it would lock.
3}if either spider, or side gears were jammed or broken in relationship to each other it would cause the issue.
The major issue is that any of these would be very rare. They would need to have happened when the tractor was in operation if they were breakage, possible before the tractor was put away. The rusting seems also unlikely as rust that solid would be difficult to achieve in even 10 years unless it was in high moisture conditions and not oily.
Forcing the wheels to turn independently by brute force is a bad idea. You have already seen that steering forces and tractive forces including wheel braking do not break it loose. More of that would break expensive parts (that are not already broken.
Though not a desired recommendation, I think the top will need to come off. It is heavy, it pulls the shifter forks off with it, and is usually stuck down hard. Make sure it is in neutral when removing it. Watch carefully in the gap as it opens, and use a lift that is not going to ""spring"" upwards when it comes loose.

Today's Featured Article - The Ferguson System Principal An implement cutting through the soil at a certain depth say eight inches requires a certain force or draft to pull it. Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically? The draft forces are ... [Read Article]
