Everybody seems so concerned about having over size sills under the bed. Standard factory wagon beds were made with 2 x8 yellow pine sills and unless you left then to rot they never had one break and 2 x 4 was used for cross members. Oak is wah to heavy a material for a bed, years ago an oak bed was known as a horse killer because they were so over heavy, if do not want to use a pine then cotton wood is ideal as it is lightweight enough that you can move that wagon by hand and either pine or cottonwood will hold all the load you would ever want to put on that gear. And you do not need 8' wide for bales, all factory made ones were 7' unless they were the small 6' X 10' beds. And stop to think about it if you go that wide how are you going to change a tire if it needs to be done, the wheel track for your wagon is 56" and the ones that use 8' beds generaly use a 72" wheel track wagon gear.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
