A bare stock will pull it ok, but at least 3:1 additional gear reduction would be better control. Lock the rearmost axle.

How do you lock the rear axle the gear reduction is that from rc4x4 ?

I am building this project as cheap as I can here's the first axle. Using threaded rod with long nut on each end passing through 1/2 by 1/2 square tubing

Here's anther view of axel. Like I said building this as cheap as I can I am make the wheels out of hockey pucks turning them on my lath. Still thinking of how to build the goose neck.
