Don't know if it will help you much or not but here's a pic from a 450 tractor sales brochure.

IH made a few different ones. Which one do you have? That might help get a useful answer.

From memory, I'm thinking the measurement from the front upright back to the rear standards is about 24". If you buy three 2x8's for the floor at your local lumber store and a couple more for the front, you should be good to go. I have the same job to do coming up soon.

On a Cub thru 140 single point carrier, the platform is (3) 2 x 8" boards and the upright is (2) 1 x 6" boards. The length is 48". The larger carriers probably use the same dimensions but longer boards.

C-1 small point for super c

WESnIL · Oct 8, 2013

Per an IH parts book I have, the platform carrier for a one point would have two 1 x 6 x 47 1/2 inches for the vertical and three 2 x 6 x 47 1/2 inches for the floor. If for a Super C, etc. they need to be 59 1/2 inches long and for the large point, like 300, they need to be 71 1/2 inches long. On the two point fast hitch platforms 2 x 6 would be standard for both upright and floor pieces. Hope this helps.
