I use 4 10,000 lb straps to 4 corners must try to put straps to hold any bucket or implement as whell as the tractor my 20'
trailer has 4 Dhooks per side pluse rub rail with stake pockets so can normaly find a spot, on the rear of the tractor I use the ROPs mt at the axel to hook up
leave tractor in gear with brake on. think it would take something pretty radical to take my 5000 lb tractor off the trailer. and I tow mine alot
I hate straps for securing equipment with wheels or tracks. The straps are advertised at 10,000 lb but that is their breaking strength. The actual working load limit is usually 3,333 lb. Four of them on your 5,000 tractor is sufficient rating wise but two would not be. The problem with straps is they fray, abrade, and weaken over time with exposure to the elements and rubbing on things. Chains cost a little more to buy up front but are way stronger and last forever if cared for properly.
