Hauling Ford 8N

Has anyone hauled a Ford 8N with 5 bush hog attached on a Uhaul trailer? I need to move my tractor and considering the option of renting a Uhaul trailer if it work.
 

Do you know if the trailer is long enough for both the tractor and bush hog to fit? I cant find the dimensions of the Uhaul trailer anywhere online.
 
The issue with the Uhaul trailers is length, they are not long enough to position the tractor with brushog to
properly locate the load, it will likely be very tongue heavy. If you have enough truck to carry the tongue weight
you might be ok.
 
I hauled my 52' 8n with a 5ft brushog on a uhaul car trailer,pulled with a half ton,and I didn't have any problems.The mower
will hang over the back of the trailer a little bit,but not that much to be concerned about,just strap/chain it down so it
doesn't bounce while going down the road.Just be careful driving on the trailer with all that weight behind you,just try and
keep the mower as low as possible,and steer with the brakes if needed,because the front end will definetely be in the air.If
the mower wasn't on,I would have without a doubt backed it on the trailer,but driving on is the only option with the
mower.Going down the road,it wasn't near as tongue heavy as I imagined.I know some guys have used the uhaul 6x12 utility
trailers,but that is without a mower or other attachments,due to the stand up,non removable ramps.For what it is worth,I
have transported an 87' 3/4 ton diesel on one of these car trailers.They are very well made,I only wish I could find a used
one for sale.
