I need a frame and QT plate I can mount my 16" Class II forks onto.
Thought I would build a rame myself but just don't have the time.

What's QT? Titan attachments carries a United Attachments SSQA frame that's made in the USA... here...

Titan has a 10-15% off deal all the time, and they deliver quickly. Sign up for email notices and they give you a 10% off coupon if I recall correctly.

See if you have a Ritchie Bros. Auction in your area.

I have purchased several fork frames from them for making custom implements. They sell both new and used.

I just built a frame for my forks. The frame is built to mount on my John Deere 4430 tractor FEL. I built it with 4"x1.5" channel on top turned up and another of the same on the bottom turned down, lips 16" apart. The ends are closed with the same channel and the mount is done with two pairs of 4" angle drilled to match the so-called "Quick attach" pins on the tractor. The top lip is notched to lock the forks in place. I made the frame 66" wide because that matched the material I had available. I have not taken any pictures because I do not want anyone (SA ?) to see my welds.:confused3:

Titan, palletforks.com. I just got a hay spear from the & added a pair of 48" forks with a hole in the end. They have several packages for frames, forks & spears, just didn't have the exact package I wanted, so I had to piece tigether.

Amusingly I have the frame & the main spear. The forks & small sub spears arent here yet.

I got forks from a neighbor,, they were sitting in a field. It took about 3 hours to build the frame.
