I don't think anyone answered your hitch question. You need a sleeve hitch adapter for the tractor's 3-point if you don't already have one, and you'll use sleeve hitch implements. Here's a Cat 0 plow and a sleeve hitch plow so you can see the differences:

Thanks Matt, you answered my question. One more thing, how much travel should the hydraulic lift in the rear have? Mine seems to move only an inch or so.

Do you have a top link pin in or just the cast piece? If it's just the cast piece it looks like it's not moving much, but if you put a top link pin in the end of the pin will move about 5" or more. Kind of like a tractor chubby... I know, sophmoric humor. I have to grow up, but I don't have to mature mentally

It does have a metal pin of some sort in it. It sticks out maybe 3 inches from the cast piece with a hole through it. Would having the deck under the tractor have anything to do with it? The deck also doesn't seem to raise very much, maybe an inch to an inch and a half. Is this normal or do I have a problem with the hydraulic's?

How far off the ground is the bottom lip of the deck? There is a depth stop adjustment knob on the right side by your foot. Remove that and the cam completely and see how far of movement you have.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
