I have an 8 1/2 ft Amerequip hoe.
It is fairly easy to attach & detach, as long as I back the tractor to exactly the right place left/right.
It is "self assisting"; that is to say I get close, hook up the hydraulics, which I then use to raise the hoe on it's stabilizer arms, back up the tractor a bit more, then when the back hooks are engaged I extend the boom to swing the sub frame up. All OK as long as I'm not 1/2 inch or so too far right or left.
I would like to be able to "just nudge it over" an inch or two and since the stabilizers are ripping the heck out of wherever I park it I thought a couple of dollies might be a solution.
How would these work ?

It seems their wheels are big enough for hard dirt and they would just roll in towards each other as the stabilizers lift the weight of the hoe.
I thought of a pair of rails, but swivel casters would also allow some fore/aft wiggle room.
