I don't know what the laws are there. I know around here a buddy of mine hauls a lot more weight than that on a 3/4 ton Dodge with the 6 speed and high output engine on a tridem gooseneck with 3 10k axles. He's had 26k on that trailer and I drove with him... the truck handles it fine and stops it fine. Is it legal... probably not. What I would suggest... find out what the axle ratings are on your truck as found on the door jamb. Figure out what it can gross on each and what the tare is on each... so you know what you can net... then figure up the weight of the trailer you need, the percentage of weight it needs on the neck, trailer axle weights, etc. and see if you can still carry the net weight of the hoe. I would have pegged that hoe to be more like 12-14k but mabey I'm wrong... Long story short... I still think you would be fine to tow that hoe on a tridem gooseneck with good brakes. Whether or not the IH engine has the guts to go anywhere with it is another story entirely...
