If you don't mind my comments, the main problem with the side-entry idea is the location of the controls and seat on your Super M.
Park a 1256 and a Super M side-by-side and you'll notice that to get the side entry on the newer tractor, the steering wheel, pedals, and seat are all pushed way forward.
When you drop an ICB cab on a Super M, the only way to have the cab over the operator is to mount it far back on the chassis. Otherwise, your butt will be hanging out the back window!
Mounted back far enough so that you can be inside the cab, the rear wheels block the doors, and you cannot get out either side.
To get a practical side entry, you would relocate the operator's controls so that the rear of the seat is directly over the axle. It's not impossible, as someone has put an 86 series cab on a 560 before.
