Crazy what folks used to do.

First photo is carefully do-able.
The second is alittle crazy. Notice the solid wheels, no tires on the truck.
 
Yes loaded a N in pickup and seen customer haul one in stock trailer. I have moved a couple by putting front wheels up in pickup.
 
I used to have a boss who insisted that you could put way too much on the equipment he had.
This was before CDL became an issue.
Though I could put 10 gallons in a 5 gallon bucket. DOUG
 
In my old age I hate to admit it but at different times hauled an IHC 460 and a WD45 on two wheel hay trailers behind a half ton truck. Was young and poor. Wouldn't even consider doing that anymore.
 
Look barney no chains ! 😀

Knowledge test for all ytdot badge holders.
If the tractor is under 10,000 pounds how many chains do I need?
 
I'm no badge holder lol but here in Wisconsin you will need 4 chains. Two in front and two in back as a 4 point tin down. Also at a certain weight the chains need to have a tag on them for the weight they can hold.
 
Iv hauled my 39 an 40 L in the back of my pick up.I would get alot of people taking pictures because they could not believe I did that.Did not not even make the truck squat.
 
I hauled a 5020 with cast duals and double stack weights with a SRW F350. With this bumper corn crop and it still being green i bet a cross the scales grossing over 100,000 this fall.
 
Don't know what DOT regs are, but my personal regs require four, one on each corner, firmly "headed and heeled" to the hauling vehicle on that type of load. If I have the room, I like to chain the front of the load toward the back of the hauling vehicle and the back of the load toward the front of the hauling vehicle.

Depending on how its tied down... two long or 4 short... will met the dot.
 
When I was in college & worked for the state Game, Fish & Parks Department, we used to haul a Farmall Cub Lowboy with a 4' belly mower in the back of a 1/2 ton '63 Chevy pickup w/long wide box. Open the tail gate, slide the 7 1/2' long bridge planks out from underneath the lowboy, make sure the "cleats" caught in the crack between the bed & tailgate, back her out & mow the fishing access area while partner rehooked the garbage trailer & he collected area trash. When he got done, unhook the trailer, open tail gate, set up bridge planks, load tractor, replace planks, close tail gate, rehook trailer & return to shop. Repeat next day trading off work with partner at different fishing access area. All summer long. Good summer job for ex-farm college kid.
 
I don't think either one of those is going to be going fast enough to splatter a bug on a windshield. Wouldn't be too concerned. That Twin City looks to have chains on the rear, blocks under the front & I think that might be that poor fellows belt holding the front wheels down. Might be why he's making that face.

A place just down the road from me used to have consignment sales. At one sale they sold a 1800 Oliver gas, it was field ready. The owner picked it up on Monday after a Sunday sale. He made it about five miles and he was setting in the BK parking lot with flat tires and bent axles on his car hauler when I came home from work. Him and his buddy were just standing there staring at the trailer in disbelief. That Oliver had bent the axles so the tires rubbed on the frame. I stopped at the place where they held the auction to buy some parts and while I was there I asked why they let him load it. They said they had tried to defer him but were told to mind their own business. A different time I saw a guy leave with a Farm-All H that they hoisted the front tires into the back of his 1/2 ton pickup a couple of straps and away he went.
