At the last MVPA convention in California 2000? there was a gentlemen who
brought a Halftrack I believe an M3A2 with the pulpit on top that was towed
over the Rockies with a Dodge 1 ton Cummins he told me it worked good except
stopping was a negotiated task done in advance.
I would say yes to your question but you would have to give more info about
the tow rig drive train and the trailer and if it had tandem axle brakes as
well.
