If its a 5- series the weight should be OK, but the rear tires have to fit between the fenders in order to get the weight far enough forward to balance it.
One thing I have done a couple of times is to load the tractor from the front of the trailer, facing to the rear. Unhook the trailer from the truck and get truck out of the way; lower the front of the trailer until the tongue almost hits the ground, then block up the front of the trailer on both sides so you don't mash the tongue into the ground. Remove jack, put ramps up the front, and drive it on. Put rear wheels of the tractor right up against the front of the fenders, and with both that I hauled that way (AC D17 and IH 674), the load was balanced just fine. But you'll have to take the mower off and haul it in the back of the pickup- not enough room between pickup and trailer to leave it on.
Kind of a lot of monkey-business. He'd have to be a REAL good neighbor!
