Our 1st tractor when we moved back to the Country was a 240, so consequently, all the 2points were cut to the smaller height.
When Dad later traded up to a 424, it had the larger, taller points. There was a pair of shims about 1/2 inch thick, as long as the entire pocket a point slides into to take up the slack. The rear, outer end of the shim was drilled and had a long roll pin in the hole to keep the shim from sliding too far int the pocket and being lost through vibration during use. Each point, therefore, had a short finger below the point, so that it would hold the shims into place from behind.
Same system should work if you have 2 fast hitch tractors, one large, one small. It would be a tough decision to let someone cut all of the points down, and having to use the shims on the larger tractor from that point forward.
