I have a M5040. I also have an old Ford 2 bit turn plow that I used with a Ford. The plow won't fit my Kubota because the lift arms are too short. The front of the plow hits the lift arms. What can I do? Can I purchase longer lift arms?

Can you post a picture of the interference?

A Pat's quick hitch would add about 4" to the length.

The plow is a cat 2. My other implements are cat 3. Do the quick connects work with the adapter bushings?

It seems like they should work OK. You would have to use the CAT3 version of the quick hitch to match your tractor and add bushings to the CAT2 equipment.
Mine are CAT1 and CAT2 so they are slightly different. I found some large flat washers that fit over the CAT1 hitch pins and used lynch pins to hold the bushings and washers in place.
