Van, I wonder what the cost would be just to hire the whole job out?

Two loads isn't that much.

Pretty good standard to go by, but here lately I've seen some 3,500# 6-lug axles on cheap tandems

I know this because I borrowed my FIL tandem to go pickup a Bobcat for him to use. My butthole was puckered once I loaded that T230 on it, the wheels were cambered in

No specific date, just in the next couple months & vetteguy, I actually want to do the work myself. The loads are free anyway. I've got a connection with that.

Not that big a deal. Just know what you are buying. Have somebody that knows go with you when buying. There are plenty good used dozers for sale but don't just buy cause its a good deal Undercarriage and engine hours is biggest things to look at.
