I got a different response than I was expecting to the pulling an elevator question. Pulling it is not an issue. I have pulled over a dozen grain augers out of IL that were all 60-70 ft long. The 70 footers have like a 14 ft wheel base. With augers I have a set of almost new tires and I always replace the wheel bearings before I pull them. I pull them 60mph with no issues. My main question was about cage bearings. Will they hold up to the trip? Because of the cage wheel bearings I know the speed will be under 40 mph and I will have to grease them often. When you drive slow you get to see the countryside better anyway. Did a little research on the MN dot site and it does not look like I need any permits as width will be under 12 and the length is ok as well. I also have never heard of a farmer being stopped pulling an implement. On a trailer yes but not pulling one. I also always use a safety chain and for this have battery powered blinking lights. It will be all state routes with no interstates. Tom
