Truck shouldn’t lift off the ground.

You will be very surprised how much wind those ramps catch running down the highway. Well, in your part of the country shouldn't be too much of an issue. Kentucky road maps read like a bowl of spaghetti.
I was on my phone as well. But defiantly didn’t click on it to open it. Our flat trailers have had versions of the out riggers or drop legs and all them have failed and bent Those ramps with the legs on it does looks more sturdy for sure Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dave, are the snap binders legal in Utah? I had heard they’re illegal here but it’s all I own and I only run them occasionally and yes I have a cautious respect for them but have used them all my life with no issue.
I’ve heard the ratchet type can come loose, never had a snap do that unless someone didn’t wrap the excess chain around the handle which I always do then tuck it into itself almost like a slip knot.
Everything I've read, heard, and watched say 4 corners plus attachment. .. that's 4 separate chains as well. One chain can be used twice but it has to be done as if it was 2 separate ones.Now, in the tuck who knows. (Or Utah)
Will the burb or any of the trucks you have in your fleet fit on a 20' trailer? If you can still do it, you may want to extend that trailer to 24' so you will be able to service future needs?

It tows well. Local guys and some on the Kubota skid steer forum say they tow those machines all day long with a 2500 duramax.I should be fine for 50 mile or less pulls(Pulls that will yield $1000 a day!)

I was just offering the recommendation of a bit longer trailer incase you had to tow one of the other trucks you own as an alternative.
Also got removable fenders so if needed, I can go about4 inches wider load. It costs150 when I ordered it.
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
A 2500 CCLB will fit on 16 feet of deck. I know for certain. Did it. On 20 feet you’ll be able to adjust tongue weight. Should be good IMO.
No. I had mine built local.
