I agree with Wayne. Get some 4x6 or better yet 8x8 and cut it up into about 3 foot lengths. Use that to build up cribbing under the axle housings. You want something that is not going to budge much even when you hit the tractor hard, like letting a tire slip and hit it (first hand knowledge there). The wood and time cutting is a lot cheaper than a shattered transmission casting or crushed body part. I built my M's cribbing in the fashion of a lincoln log cabin bolted together, basically a connected box. It was very sturdy and refused to budge. With little changes it is now holding up my H.
