In the 801 Forum, Sam McNair has a discussion entitled "Flying Frying Pan" !  This is a really clever idea for a nosewheel dolly to both elevate the nose to provide tail clearance going under a low hangar door and/or allow for tight maneuvering ... seems it would be also be ideal for maneuvering a fuselage that's on the gear into a tight spot.

This is really a clever and relatively inexpensive dolly that could be modified in a number of ways to suit your needs.  It is so unique I hated to see it "locked up" in the 801 Forum and the majority of the members be unaware of it!

To avoid the "double posting" rule, simply join the 801 Forum (you can join any type specific forum whether you have that model Zenith or not!) and please continue any comments or questions there rather than this thread.
