Have to agree with old on this, just too many unknowns in your post. Kind of depends on how easy that rolling weight rolls as well. Surface your pulling on will also make a difference.

My dad once hauled a Caterpillar D6 with blade on a 4 wheel low bed. This was the type of low bed like a big farm wagon designed to be pulled by a loaded dump truck. Dump truck broke down and since my dad was hiring the dozer he wanted it that day. It was basically 4 miles of level road. Dad said the low bed settled in soil a bit during loading of dozer, thus dozer operator had to give a lurch on clutch, so the H would start away with it. Once moving dad went up the black top in 3rd gear. Few little grades along the way, dad said the down grades bothered him more than the up grades. Took them a couple of hours to make it to the destination, got a lot of onlookers through village. Most folks really couldn't believe what they were seeing. The Farmall H looked damn small ahead of that load.
