Okay - got it. The two point was the factory IH version of what IH thought was a better hitch system than the 3-point. And, it was better. However, they were too late coming to the party. The 3-point already had received such wide acceptance, it had become the industry standard, and the 2-point died for a lack of support and the fact it required specially made 2-point implements, which only IH made. Everybody made/makes 3-point implements and they all fit about any brand of tractor. If you are going to actually work your tractor, a 3-point system is the way to go - unless you know where there are a whole bunch of original IH 2-point implements lying around in good shape.
If you already had a 2-point system on your tractor, it is easy to convert to 3-point. If you don't already have a 2-point system, then why bother - just buy the 3-point system and go with it.
An M is a row crop tractor. Hope this helps you.
