More than likely a 32' dual tandem dovetail. You should be fine. Not real sure about florida laws, but you might want to get farm tags if possible. Here in texas, farmers can haul just about anything. Over-width, weight etc. Just make sure to secure the load properly, and don't get in a big hurry. Also haul in theearly morning when it cooler, keep your tires on truck from not getting as hot.

do the math,overweight is overweight, if you are overweight,know the risks and consequenses before you turn a wheel

In florida we have ag tags but the are for grove trucks and cannot be taken 150 miles from your address.

I have no problem with running heavy, especially as shot distance Im going. My lowboy has had plenty of interesting heavy loads. I was many worried if there was any known problems running heay on a srw like if the axles are known to bend or bearings blow out ect. But from the looks of it all will be good.
