Have you asked the trailer dealer if there is an optional wheel? Or maybe somebody local that does trailer repair? It's funny, I always take the wheels off our jacks so the trailers don't roll away!

I also agree that the tractor's a great way to jockey the trailer around. In fact, the ball mounted on the 3PH is really slick. You can back up to the trailer, raise the ball and grab it, don't even have to get off the tractor. It also puts the ball farther out back so you can really turn super tight.

There are several different manufacturers of the 3PH receiver hitches. One advertizes right here, Summit Fabrications. I got a smaller version from them, that bolts on a standard 3PH drawbar. One thing you have to be aware of is there is no down pressure with the 3PH, so if the trailer was balanced heavy in the rear it could lift up the tongue and the 3PH. You can put on a safety chain to limit the upward travel of the 3PH. I have not found it to be a problem. I also bolted a ball-mount on the back of my rear blade, so I can move trailers when I'm cleaning up snow.
