Why wouldn't a typical tandem axle car hauler be enough? They're plenty fine for a 5000lb car, why not for a 3000lb (Super C) or 2000lb (Cub) tractor? It's not like he's trying to haul an M or something like that... Yes, I'm aware that that the GVWR of a trailer includes the weight of the trailer. Let's say the trailer weighs a ton. Okay, you've got 5000lb+ worth of useful payload capacity left. That's USEFUL payload capacity. If a trailer is rated for 7700lbs, then it has to be able to weigh 7700 pounds and travel down the road at speed safely. You can shirk the government regulations, but there's no getting away from personal injury lawyers. A 14000lb trailer? Yeah, then you gotta buy a tandem axle dump truck to pull it.
