MEP-804A Transporting

[kwartk]

Fellow Steelers; bought an MEP-804A on an M200A1 trailer, and looking to tow from OH to PA.. Is it safe to tow ? I dont know whether the trailer brakes work or not.. Any advice much appreciated.

*****update Mon 8 Nov***

I no longer need the trailer , rather more the Genset. is it easy to remove the bolts holding the Genset onto the Trailer?

Hey @kwartk good morning. If you don't end up towing it I can get it hauled from OH to PA for you. In the meantime if you want a transport quote to have as a back up plan I can do that. I would just need pick up zip and delivery zip. Feel free to reach out directly @ 484-431-9509 or nick@unitedstatesoffreight.com. Have great day!

Depending on what it looks like, tires, what you are pulling it with, etc

Hello I was thinkin a Toyota Tundra truck.. I was adviced best to use a 3/4 Ton truck so will likely look to renting a FD 250...I am not really sure of the tire condition, so looks like another dimension I need to factor and decide whether its worth me towing or getting a tow company to transport to PA...

Same tires on that 200 go on a deuce so finding them isn't too hard and they are cheap. if it's a single tire 200 then those are common commercial tires to stop and replace if need be.

Just a few 5/8" bolts
