Dave...yea those casters are pretty useless with any weight on the hoist. 
Other than that, the unit works pretty well.

Steve,

I bought the 2 ton folding crane there back in Oct.  Same deal - used a 
coupon they sent me in their mailer for a better price than the current 
advertised sale price.  It seemed like a better deal than the 1 ton for the 
price I got at the time.  Plus, you never know - what if I had to pull the 
mighty Cummins some day?  Before I separated them, I moved my 361 with 
tranny around no problem - although the casters leave a lot to be desired as 
far as turning ability under load.  I may upgrade those some time.  It sure 
is handy to have, though.

Dave
