How wide is it going to be?
I have no experience with one, so here are some pictures: https://www.google.com/search?safe=....0...1ac.1.46.img..1.0.0.DSpqJdTrbFQ#imgdii=_

- Getting old. Sold the ranch. Sold the tractors. Moved back to the city.
My single axle cultipacker is about 10 ft wide.
Transporting it on a public road is a problem. I'd have to cut it down to about 8 ft and rig up a pair of hydraulically actuated towing wheels on the rear end. Not a big job--wheels, a hydraulic ram, some steel and your stick welder.
Good luck

Public roads, trailer width limit, generally 96-102" (8-8.5 ft)depending on the state in which you're pulling.
If you live in Wisconsin, a new law (Act 377)increases the limits (height, width, length, weight) on "Instruments of Husbandry" (IoH) and establishes a new class of vehicle (Ag CMV).
Governor signs off on farm machinery on roads
Don't know if this applies to Interstate highways or only to Wisconsin state roads.
