We were getting the new TOW II Missiles and were using the TOW I for training only as they wanted used up.
Given that the ATGM like the TOW are crewed served weapons (IE more than one person is need to use the weapons technically) you be better off using systems like M47 Dragon , LAW, AT-4, RPG's in this case.
Also you have find some way to bolt the system to the deck as it move's a far bit when fired. There are claws on the tripod, but they would good for soft ground. Sand bags could another option, you also have to make sure the ATGM system had clear black blast area are ATGM can put up a lot of smoke, during the launch stage.

Ratchet straps, in 03' that is how we secured our M240, M2, and Mk 19 to our dump trucks.
