    1 20 axle modular platform trailer to transport the chassis 2 low bed trailers to haul the 4 tires and rims 1 low bed trailer probably a 2+2+2 + 4 axle tractor to haul the bucket and another rig to haul the cab and essentials at least 9 pilot and rear escorts. I would be greatly surprised if the total haul excluding permits cost less than $500.00 per mile.
    And the tire man is going to love running up 72 lug nuts on each wheel

    Especially if he first sorts out a bucket of 288 right and left hand lug nuts?
