Here are some more pics.
I incorporated the sway control with the fender mount/spacer plate. It's heavy wall tube that is welded to the plate at the top and bolted at the bottom to clamp the axle casting.
In some of the pics you can see the cross piece that ties both sides together where the arms mount to the bottom of the plates.
The rear v shaped support on the drawbar is for weight carrying only. It was made to bolt into the bolt hole for the piece that kept it on the old drawbar support. When you make it be sure it is sized to hold the drawbar up and not contribute to the drawbar pull. The pin under the belly takes that stress as originally intended.
I'm not sure how much down weight the castings will handle with this set-up but I don't know many pieces of equipment that you would hook to an M that would have a tongue weight that would be a problem. My planters, hay rake, ditcher and all the other things I have hooked with this set-up don't have high tongue weights. I don't bale with this tractor as my modified NH 320 balers are too large for this tractor. My NH 268 is sized right put I don't think it would be an issue either.
I say all this since this is the only part of this set-up that I even remotely think could have an issue.
When I get back home I'll take some more pics of the various areas of discussion so you have a complete picture how this integrates with the tractor.
The hitch allows any wheel spacing and doesn't interfere with anything you would put on the tractor except the old cultivators that clamped parts to the axles. The picture with the bean cutters have the wheel spacing at 66 inches for 22 inch beans. I can still cultivate 30 inch corn without having to change spacing for the 22 inch beans.
