2 inches is only 2 inches. but with a bush hog, ya putting that extra weight even further behind the tractor. which may cause problems and smaller tractors to lift heavier duty 3pt implements. along with cause possible more teeter totter effect. were the front end either becomes light or comes off the ground.
i honestly have no idea about specs of tractor nor your bush hog. but just something to think about.
================
the problems over the years, is that implements, make it bush hogs, planters, 3pt bale spears, discs, to other. is everything is so freaking heavy, that you need excellent backing up skills to backup with 1/2" of being square.
pat easy hitch, and quick hitches.... not a fan of. and i no longer remember what they are called. but the lower lift arms. can extend out (for attachment purpose only) once you get lower links connected you just backup with tractor or perhaps lift with top link to get the lower arms to retract. and pin the extendable arms back in.
i want to say, the ones i do remember seeing, replace the entire lower lift arms completely. so when they are contracted, they do not extend out any further out than the original lift arms. and i think they had something like pat's easy change, or quick hitch, were there is a lower hook, then latch above. to grab ahold of 3pt lower pins on the implement.
=================
on a different note, pat easy hitch vs quick hitch or imatch, the quick hitch or imatch most likely be easier to backup and attach, by raising the 3pt hitch on tractor. due to the quick hitch has a place were the 3pt pins on implement can slide across if you are not perfectly square as you backup tractor. and lift the 3pt hitch. but even then, you may still end up pushing the implement all around. in attempted to get everything hooked up.
