Hay wagons; let's see them!

[farmall 55a case]

I have a running gear for one when I put the main runners for one how do I bolt it down? I was told not to bolt all four corners down so it can flex when going through the fields. Is this so? The way I was told to do it was bolt one down in the front and the other in the back? Is this rite? Please let me know. Great looking wagons everyone!

We have all 4 corners bolted with no issues, but we have fairly even ground.

Its the only way we build wagons here, until looking on the internet I didn't know the other practice of running the deck lengthwise. You can pick your stringers to be 3/4" or so above the tires so they normally tend to be lower than most I see of the other style.

I'm in the process of redecking 6 running gears which has turned into an expensive project as I want to use steel main stringers so I don't have to do this again for a long time.

Should work, plus it's a little lower to the ground that way!

I have each corner bolted down and hay on very uneven terrain. It still flexes; believe me!

Think I'm going to go that way too!

Pretty heavy duty Tor! What will go in the box along the underside of the deck?

I don't see a wagon. Maybe the trailer is blocking the view?
