Nick, I moved my 234 by unbolting the front divider from the gathering units and was able to put them onto trailers to move. I am not sure about the width of the the Oliver picker, but one trick I have learned from some old-timers who have moved them is to stick a pipe through the stands that rest on the ground. By using one pipe, the picker doesn't want to flex in or flex out. Make sure your pipe is the largest diameter as compared to the stands and at least 12" longer than the length between them. If I were to do it again, I would use the pipe through the stands and 4x4 between the upper parts of the gathering units with ratchet straps and loaded onto a trailer. If the picker is too wide for your trailer, I would unbolt the front divider, and still run the pipe through the stands, push the gathering units together bind them together with ratchet straps and load them. Good luck and let us know how it went!! Maybe take some pictures!!
