I asked about moving a 16x80 mobile home with my IH 660. Responses varied from be careful to you must be crazy. The you must be crazy's were the most accurate. The 660 front end was too light (hitch load of over 7000 lbs) and the drawbar didn't like it. No damage done. The house was in a very tight spot. We ended up ganging up on it with a Cat 426 backhoe and the 660. It was a case of lift as much as possible and drag it on blocks between the hitch and the ground. It is now out on the road with a tandem axle truck to take it the 15 miles to its new spot. It will be VERY easy to back it in to the new spot. Thanks for the help. P.S. The previous thread was eliminated.
