David, Good info, and yes, I'd think it a little tricky coming down on a dolly with wheels that extend out the back - what 5", well, 3" anyway at the bottom of the wheel. I'd thought of lifting one end, blocking up as high as necessary to get under it with a right angle drill, repeat other side. We'll see. Other suggestions? Thanks William R.
