Some tractors had the ends of the arms designed in such a way that the balls were replacable, some didn't. Usually the ones that were designed to replace the balls had some type of retainer that keep the ball in place until the tractor was hitched to something. One bonus to having this setup is that you could change out the balls to match up with whatever catagory equipment you wanted.
In your case it sounds like you've got the ones that aren't replaceable. If that is, in fact, the case your only choice to "change" them is to cut off the old ones and replace them with new ones. I haven't seen them myself but I'd assume that with a little research you can find a set of ends with the replacable balls if you were so inclined. I've got a customer with a 4500 Ford industrial tractor with a three point that has them, so a Ford dealer might be a good place to start.
