Everyone else has given good advice, but I will add one more idea. If you are using straps instead of chains, "D" rings work better. As stated by others the wood floor alone is not of sufficient strength to hold a tractor (or a car for that matter). You can add steel re-inforcment under the floor then use 1/2" bolts through the "D" ring, floor AND steel. There is rings on the market that can be made flush. Just make sure you check the load limits. Hope this helps, Stu.
