[QUOTE="dj, post: 268347, member: 1795"] groveman14 as a stand alone headgate(no chute) it wasn't engineered to be portable(with wheels and hitch) as a single unit. You could add these and make it work with some trail and error thought. BUT you still have to dismount it and mount it when you get to the new location. So you will still be dealing with manhandling the thing. Unless you have tractors/loaders, forklift, or mechanical means to do this at each place. I realize the cost is enough to make most choke. By the time you re-engineer it you might be money and labor ahead to go ahead and get a portable chute with the headgate mounted to it. Or buy two headgates. [/QUOTE]
