I am finally working on my hay wagon / parade wagon project.  I have the running gear apart for cleaning and paint.  I can't decide how to frame the bed.  I want to be able to put reasonable sturdy side boards on to help contain passengers at hay rides and parades.  I have two framing options in mind:
 
1 - 4x6 treated runners front to back, with 4x4 cross memembers side to side2 or 3' on center, with the floor boards running front to back.
 
2 - 4x6 treated runners front to back, with the bed boards laid side to side.
 
Option one gives me cross members to mount brackets to for the side board up rights.  Option 2 keeps the bed a few inches closer to the ground and eliminates a lot of materials (4x4s), but how can I securely fasten side board?
 
Any input is welcome, pictures of how you've done would be awesome.  I feel like I am trying to reivent the wheel, and this should be fairly simple.
 
I have a Kory 8 ton gear, but it will be PO#1 with cream wheels.
 
Thanks,
 
Adam
