Anyone come up with ideas on how to retrofit a packer with someway to move it? I know there are flip over discs and I assume maybe packers? Looking for other ideas. Otherwise I'll have to load it on the trailer to pack the neighbors 2 miles away. I did drive it down there this summer but it was a pita as it is really loud and slow.

I pick it up with the loader and take off down the road.

I hook mine to my ATV, and drive it up on the snowmobile trailer and tie it all down together.

Have him get his own packer? Not being a dick, but that might be easiest over building or buying retrofit materials. If there are acres, he should get one. If not acres plural, he could get a little one. Driving yours down the road can't be too great for wheel life either.
I'm in the same boat. I have the packer on my property, and don't ever plan to mess with the headache of trying to get it two miles down the road to the other. Don't have the trailer for it. I have tried countless times to get the guy who gave me this one to find out if there are more sections still around from where he got it, but you can only push a favor so hard.

If you or the neighbor have a tractor with a loader, you could pick it up and set it into your trailer perpendicular to the axle...?

Take it apart and reassemble once there.
