Mark,
The A-C All Crop harvesters were good for
everything you mentioned except corn. If you
really want to use them they will work behind
a tractor as small as a Super A, but the H would
be a better choice. As far as hauling them, if
you could stick to the back roads you'd be ok.
They're pretty wide and almost as long so towing
is the easiest unless you hire it out to an OTR
truck. If you tow, be sure to grease the wheel
bearings well and keep the speed down under 45
MPH or so. Stop often and regrease the bearings,
they're only bronze or brass sleeve bearings, so
they don't burn up. Check out hiring the truck,
the stress reduction alone will be worth it.
If you do decide to tow, you'll need to have a
ball mounted as far over to the passenger side of
your truck as you can get one due to the offset
hitch on the All Crop.
