Flat towing a deuce chassis

[Vendetta]

Can you get a flat trailer suitable to load a Deuce onto that fits on a Deuce's hitch? (pintle?) If so would that work or would the weight be too great on the hitch of the Deuce towing the 2nd?

tounge weight can be adjusted in placement over trailer axels a #10,000 GVW trailer behind a duece should be no problem with brakes

Wow a lot of interest in this theoretical discussion.

The tow vehicle is a full size Dodge pickup. I have towed trailers through the mountains of WV that had brakes just over 9000 pounds with no issues. I would not go any larger than that and a stripped deuce chassis would be far less than that.

I was mostly concerned with the weight of a stripped chassis and how the steering would react. The steering box would be on the chassis but I found 2 posts that mentioned disconnecting the drag link which is why I mentioned it. I also considered the tow dolly idea. The front of a deuce would fit on an 80" wide heavy duty dolly and the chassis would not exceed the weight rating especially with the rear axle suspended with the tires removed and the outer tires removed from the forward axle. I may explore that idea if this were to be come a reality.

What is best way to suspend that rear axle?

Chain the rear axle upto the frame. But I would trailer this rather than flat tow..
