Mr Wardner:
Hauled many tractors on an old KB-5. As is probably 4-5 years anyways. Not overpowered by any means with an M under a picker or a G John Deere on the back. Yes they were hair raising days and we did use heavy white oak planks 3 1/2 inch or so thick. Oh yes they did bend a lot, and if it was a little wet, you occasionally slid off one or the other sometimes both. I remember many times putting a M on with picker and half of each rear tire was hanging on the edge of the box. One thing you didn't worry about was spinning out. Don't dig the hole you back into to deep when loading and unloading unless you have someone to pull you out.
Those engines were only about 220 cubic inch if I recollect right that's some 50 years ago. What a brute to grind valves on. Good luck buddy.
