Fast hitch on a Super M

I am thinking about putting a Fast hitch on my Super M. My question is what all will need to be modified from my current set up and has anyone done this before? I was thinking about a 3 point but want something that is relatively close. I also was wondering what it takes for the hydraulics. I have a stage 2 with live hydraulics. Thanks for any info.
 
M and W used to make the side plates. Think you might have a hard time finding a pair. You could make your own starting with an axle housing gasket to locate the bolt holes. You will also need the IH Fast Hitch parts from 340, 350, 450, 460, 560.

If you do a good job on the side plates, you could have a shop flame cut them with a computer or cut them with a waterjet ot laser. You should be able to market them on eBay. Flame is cheaper.

If you only want power up you don't need anything but one hose. Get an IH Christmas Tree valve for power up and down. Or any open center 4 way valve.

The hitch side plates from a 450/560 only will bolt up if your tractor is a true Stage II, the hyd cyl will not be able to use the draft control, just hook it up to any valve that is double action. 300/400 had different type of cyl brckt on top of deck, 300/340/350/460 smaller bolts spacing on side plates & width.
 
Its a true stage two. I will be looking for some more info and doing my homework with a benefit/cost ratio but I think this is something i want to do.
