Transporting a bush hog

[ironpen]

Thanks for the info. Still working on the solution.

Probably get a rollback for about $125. Not that much if it's a one time thing.

I agree a rollback makes sense, still working on how to get it on and off without tearing up the bush hog

Boards - 2x4 runners

It's a brush hog, not a corvette. Maybe your over thinking this deal? Seems it should be pretty difficult to damage.

If there is no tractor where its going, how is it gonna get used?

I assume at some point there will be a tractor there. Is it possible to wait til then to move the cutter.

Put a couple of 4x4 runners under it and then jack up one side and use wooden blocks or cinder blocks to block it up. Repeat on the other side. When it is high enough, back the trailer under it and lower it down to the deck with the jack, one side at a time. Repeat the same thing at the destination in reverse. Might take a half hour or so to load and unload. Make sure you don't have any appendages under it while jacking or lowering.

If you have a FEL to load it on the trailer, then you only have to do that at the destination.

There is a tractor there, just no FEL.

Hook it to your truck and pull it, but stay at 20 MPH or less.

Back it on rollback with tractor and leave at very rear. Hook to tractor to unload.

Ironpen, I just realized you are in Montgomery. Where are you moving it to and from?
