Diecast Dozer on AMT Lowboy

[Warren D]

More of speculation, just wondering if anyone has put a diecast 1/25 dozer on the AMT lowboy trailer?  I have an old almost-glue-bomb lowboy trailer that I will be rebuilding.  I just obtained a First Gear IH TD 25 dozer that I thought would make a good load.  Well, I guess I didn't think it through, the dozer is cast metal and weighs quite a bit.  I suspect the trailer won't be able to take the weight.  I have the AMT dozer kit but probably won't get to it anytime soon.

The  First Gear I.H. is quite heavy and I would think it will eventually collapse the tires of the lowboy.

I don not have an assembled AMT lowboy but will the F.G. dozer be a bit wide for the bed ?

The track width looks ok, maybe just a little overhang.  Blade is way wider.  Might make extensions for the trailer.  I guess I'm thinking of some "hidden" supports under the trailer.  I wasn't concerned with the tires a much as the frame but I see your point.

I have the red fire dozer on an AMT  lowboy with no issues.
