I have been trying to arrange shipping for a pull type combine for about a month without much luck. So I am planning on pulling a 7721 425 miles from northern Minnesota to home in southwest Wisconsin one of these next few weekends. I am up for the challenge.
My pulling pickup is a 2011 F 350 diesel dually flatbed in good repair. The combine supposedly has recently new tires, but I do not know if that means 5 or 15 years ago. Guys tend to lose track of years. Supposed to weigh about 14k. My first idea was to dismount the pickup head and put it on my flatbed, but he said I would have negative younger wieght, so I am going to pull it with the head mounted. It will be 15 wide. I am going to see what it takes to check and adjust and repack the wheel bearings. I am going to bring along an adapter to plug in the tail lights, but I am also going to bring along remote controlled battery taillights.
What I am wondering is if anyone has pulled one, and if so, how did it pull? What is the max speed I can expect? Interstate has a minimum 45 mph and I hope it can be pulled at that speed. I intend to get there the night before and leave at or just before sunup on a Sunday.
