I found this Quick Attach Bucket Fork system on the Gearmore website (see attached). My father made a similar setup for his Case 580K Backhoe.
Are there any other companies on the East coast that make a similar system?
Do any of you out there have a similar setup? If so, how do you like it? Also, where did you purchase yours or did you make your own? Does anyone have any idea what the cost is on this system?
Finally, are there any disadvantages to this system as compared to Clamp-On Bucket Forks or Loader Mounted Forks?
Compared to loader mounted forks, I suppose the obvious disadvantage would be the added weight of keeping the bucket on the loader and also the added distance from the loader pins.
