You either need a deck over the wheels trailer that would then be 102 inch wide or just drive it home. My self I would just go drive it. You would be home before you could get a dolly rented and then find out it is not made for something as heavy as a tractor. The ones I have rented from U-haul where barely heavy enough to move a bigger car on let alone a tractor.
Plus you need to find out what you have to do to a IH606 to safely tow it. Some tractors have a tow position on the shifter. Example JD syncro range transmissions you put the shifter between third and fourth range, it is marked tow. Some tractors don"t lube the transmission and rear end if towed. JD 2840 is an example. If you tow a tractor that is not made to be tow with the drive wheels turning you might ruin the transmission.
Again I would just go over on a Sunday morning when the traffic is light and drive it home. You would be legal and not have to worry about your tractor or tow dolly.
