I used a similar scheme to move my TX472 from the
front yard (where it was placed by the hauler), to
the back yard.  I fabricated trucks (tires/wheels +
axles), using 16" pneumatic tires/wheels + 3/4"
steel rod sandwiched between sticks of 2x4*.

I used single strips of plywood, and used my rolling
floor jack to pick up one end to turn it.  See photos

* I now have parts with which to build a nice
yard cart.
