This is for Tyler. Use 1/2 steel. Cut in a U Match the bolt pattern on the buss wheels so it can be bolted to the hub. Now add two heavy low deck axles and the 16 heavy equipment trailer wheels. You will need one in front and one in rear. Like a shop wheel dolly. Make 2 of them. One left the other right. They will need to fit underneath or to the outside. I thought of a rale under the tire but possibly no room... This will allow it io be moved under tow or maneuver in tight quarters. This will need refinement.. A second set can have a trailer tung and steering. Cool vid.
