Get that monkey off your back and quit smoking! LOL ! But seriously, think about a split light-weight case set(Brand X) or a split gig bag like I use! My Emmons Legrande D10 weighs 40# in it's gig bag!

https://ohiotravelbag.com/catalog/hardware/wheels---and---feet.aspx#f=&p=10&s= Here are some add on type wheels that might work on a steel case.

Same site, Handles category, pg. 5 shows a nice nickel plate metal handle sort of like the ones Williams Guitar co. used to offer in their kit. Williams kit was a nice one but has been listed as sold out for months, so I don't know if they will come back in stock or not.

I bought some a while back, but they would have required cutting slots in the case and the wheels would have been partially embedded in the case. I decided not to use those.

JB, I feel ya, more and more each year.

The road case for my LTD-400 has a great set of wheels. Now it weighs even more!  I could install a Telonics neo-mag speaker, and leave the road case at home, if ya get my drift.

Put the legs, rods and pedal bar into a duffel bag, it's a free test if split case is going to work for you. Replace original legs with light weight legs.

Here is a way to add them to an existing case. Not much modifying needed.

Just order a wheel kit from Fred Justice! It has everything you need including a handle,case stand and is easy to install without any modifications to your case.

One of those travel-size fold-up dolly/hand-truck might be all you need. Use it for your amp and steel-seat on the 2nd trip.
