Default ideas needed on engine hoist

I've got a typical crowfoot engine hoist.

Problem with it is the wheels. They're small, caster things that tend to set
up and not roll or caster easily.

I frequently need to move the hoist around "chasing the shade and various
projects around" on my pad and driveway. Maybe 50' or so max.

What's my least expensive way to get the hoist mobile to where it's user
friendly to travel on the deck? And, still have it safe for load pickup.
