Hello all....I'll apologize in advance for bringing up a topic that I know has been brought up a hundred dozen times already. I've searched and read "all" the old posts and have come up empty.

I bought a set of forks with the round bar through the top of them to use with my FEL and am looking to buy a set of the weld on brackets for the top of the bucket. Does anybody know of a source to buy these from? I am sure I could have the local welding shop cut me some but I was hoping to find an online source that already had a proven style and shape. Does anyone know a source? I've looked everywhere.

I appreciate everyone's time and help.

I've been saving fork photos for ideas. Here are some using hooks. I don't know whose they are.

Thanks for the reply and pictures.....I've seen set ups like those and liked them but thought i would find the original j-hooks. I think I am over thinking it. Maybe these $8 hooks from harbor freight are the ticket.

Sometimes the longer version mounts better. These are available from 4x4 suppliers. Here is one:
