I cannot answer your question about size and weight, etc.,but can
guarantee you are risking mayhem on the highway with anything lees than a
1 ton and heavy rated gooseneck trailer. A buddy and I attended a 4 th
of July parade 12 miles from home a few years back and trailered an M2
with a 3/4 ton 4 wd and vowed never to do that again. Stopping distance
increased more than four times normal and steering was non-existant over
10 mph.
Find someone with a heavy duty rig to move it for you. Much safer and
less grey hair!
Best wishes,
Frank
