I can't get your photo to open but it looks like you're pulling a high cube container. High cube are 9'6". Std height ISO box is 8'6" which are supposed be what a M1022 is designed for (of any length).
Backing a full trailer is a PITA. I guess farm boys can do so (as grain wagon).
If you're creative can do a lot with the dollys. Used a 5T for a trailer for a 200kw MEP009A genset. 4" square tube welded between the sections. On site can drop the genset oon the ground for operation/maint (OK 4" above ground). Handy no vibration and CHEAP.
Anyone figured out if the...
M1022 is the two piece (frt/rear) used to move ISO containers. 11.00x20 tires (singles)
TM only has one rating - 15000lb payload (as for most trailers). Empty weigh is 5580lb.
Anyone experimented with or put a real load on a M1022 Dolly? DOD rated at 7.5t load but typical .mil looks overbuilt. Tires are weak link.
This dolly will become frt/rr axle for a full trailer project. I'm thinking going to duals @ all 4 corners. Goal is around 25000lb load.
