Moving the 5 th wheel with only 2 weels

I have to move my 5 th wheel for a few hundred foot I have 2 very bad tires
I was wondering If I could put one good tire on each side because I have only a very short distance to doo, and should I put them on the fron or rear axel

  • Does not really matter. You just want them on the same axle. I assume you are going to go 5 mph? Chris
  • I wouldn't even bother moving the tires. You're going to do 5mph, right?

    X2, at 5mph not likely to have a blowout. When we bought our 1st 5er, the tires were very bad also drove about six to ten miles at up to 45, no issues.

    A few hundred feet, I would definitely just go for it as long as they hold air. Creep it over there.
