I went with 4x8s for the main stringers simply because I have seen so many sway backed wagons around. Make sure that you get the front ends of your stringers close enough together so that your tires can cut all the way for sharp turns. (Don't ask me how I know about this part)I used hemlock for my frame parts and It has held up well for nearly twenty years. Leave a good space between deck boards so that it will hold less moisture. Bolt your stringers to the gear only in the front, and put light chain around in the back. Use some good heavy 2 inch or so angle stock to attach your front and rear spreaders in between your stringers. Hope this helps.
