Back in the old days I used to dig basements with a 955L cat track machine I went from job to job hauling the machine on the lowboy with me.The fun began when loading the machine on the steel ramps you get to the top and the machine teeters on its center point its there you have to throttle back so the machine doesnt slam down on the trailer to hard it either goes on nice and straight or wants to turn and go down side ways thats when the pucker factor hits you.

The crappiest dual rear wheel ford gasser with the appropriate gearing is like 15000+ towing. Which ought to be plenty for a deuce, most likely this is a diesel rated at 18000+ or a 450 rated at 24000+.

Yeah I saw that. They don't mess around with those ratings do they?
