Bryce I think what he is talking about your hitch maybe a "Factory" after market hitch for an Farmal "M" but it is not a factory/OEM designed hitch. You may have one of two problems.
1) The tractor does not have any provisions for draft control. So you will be basically using a mounted pull type plow. Since you say you have a depth wheel it may work out fine since a M is a pretty good three plow tractor in most soils. IF you have hard plow soils than you are going to find out how important draft control is.
2) The biggest problem I have found with the aftermarket three point hitch is the geometry. They usually are a "Universal" designed hitch with different mounting brackets for different tractors. So the geometry is often not correct for any one model tractor. The ones I have tried to make work with a mounted plow just did not work well. The hitch either was pulling the plow out of the ground or sinking it to China. The draft link angles just where not correct.
So good luck and I hope it works.
As for your tail wheel issue. Did the plow have one on it OEM??? Many economy plows had a longer landslide over a tail wheel. I am not sure what Ford used on your Plow.
