Wait a minute—42"x3 is 10' 6" wide.

What size are your candidate wheels?
I think that for towing,the front wheels would have to be free to turn and rear wheel fixed,as when pulling with a towbar,or with fixed front wheels,allowing the rear to turn as on Bam's 1-wheeler.

The wheels are about 8.5" X 2.5".
