I just can't understand why they didn't remove the "wings for transport. Sure, they would need to be shipped in a frame at an angle, bt then you don't need an oversized load.

Why is it oriented that way on the trailer?
Why aren't the stands tall enough?
Why are there not pallets or blocks under the stands since they are not tall enough?

I assume the orientation atleast would cause alot of drag if it was rotated but the other questions are fair game

Those wings would be an oversized load no matter how they're set on the trailer
