like that 1 Ed? lol

unless the center of gravities are set up for towing
i dont see a company saying its cool to do, or the tow weight limit is prob 250lbs (17.9 stone lol)

also remember that a forklifts weight counterbalances the load
with a jack the load is in the center of the wheelbase so they dont need to be 8500 lbs
