Well I just talked to them. the tray that the wheels sit in has a 2" lip,
they have 4 ball bearing casters 3" in diameter, with a 3000 pound car, 1
person can spin the car around. has a rolled lip. 12" are $160 set, they
also have 16" with 6 casters weight for these are about 4800 pounds total.
A heavy duty version of the 12" dolly is available, costs $200 and can hold
5500 pounds suitable for a Chevy Suburban or similar. Dollys are made of 12
guage steel for regular duty, 10 guage steel for heavy duty. The fellow on
the phone has a TR-4 on a set and he says that he can give the car a gentle
push with one hand and the car will spin a 180. There is no locking
mechanisim for the casters, suggested to use a U shaped piece of plywood.
I think I'll be buying a set of these for Frankensprite.....
