Oh yeah, should have explained that better. Wasn't planning on building anything to support the truck in transit. Was thinking more along the lines of what you're suggesting m16ty, minus all the grease. Haven't had a chance to look at the tru-hitch 5th-wheel wrecker setups very closely, but...

Maybe. Haven't see what I'm working with yet, but have got the fabrication end of things covered. No concerns there. Am sure you're right, but we're pretty good about making sure our stuff presents well. Just posted this over on pirate, which explains a little bit about our plans for this...

Ah, yeah. Realize that it's not a proper step-deck but am pretty sure I can build something that will work without adding more than a couple hundred pounds. This is all just speculation though, haven't even seen one of these things in person before. Just seemed like it might be our best bet...

Just bought an M270A1. Think we might be able to add a third axle to distribute the weight well enough to be legal in CA? Maybe something like a tag-axle that we could raise/lower?

Thanks guys. Wasn't sure about those tow capacities, seeing as how conservatively most of this military stuff is rated.

What should a fella expect to spend on a trailer that meet those specs? And could an M939-series tractor pull a load like that?
