Scott,

If you find all the right pieces to make your tractor roll, you still
will need a way to get it up on the trailer, and in the correct
position. It is possible to attach a pully to the front of the trailer
and pull it on by backing a pulling rig with cable attached to the
tractor and through the pully and back to the pulling rig. You
can also jacknife your Pickup and pull the tractor straight on
from the front of the trailer.

There are other ways to load a tractor on a tailer besides rolling
it on. If you can get access to a strong loader, the operator can
set the tractor in the exact location on your trailer for the best
ride home. I am attaching a picture of the loading of my Farmall
C that was stuck and missing a rear tire.

Find the right trailer and tow vehicle. 300 miles is a great
distance to travel with the wrong rig. Trouble will find you.
Attach the front and rear with two chains at each end. Use
binders on all four chains. Check them for tension after 30
miles or so. Hauling tractors the first few times out can give you
some grief.

Good luck and let us know how it went.
