Titan Attachments has the brackets fairly inexpensive. I'm sure there are other places that sell those.
Done that, but into a live fire pit. Dumped my bucket right into the fire.I've never witnessed a quick attach failure, but I did get to see a buddy of mine forget to lock the levers and when he dumped a load of topsoil into his dump truck the bucket went in with it.
Even completely unlatched, that grapple wouldn't have come off with the Euro/Global quick attach. So much safer, simple, reliable and easy to use. Makes no sense why the SSQA is still used in 2024.
Yep. I’m sold on Global quick attach.
Much heavier duty, safer & more peace of mind.
Our first tractor had an IH 2 point hitch. It was kind of good because we were able to purchase cheap implements. But, I haven't dealt with a 2 point implement for decades, and I don't believe anybody makes either new 2 pt hitches or implements, at least not on a commercial scale.Probably would.
To costly to switch though because all my attachments would need to be converted.
Even at work, to switch to a different system now all 7 skid loaders and buckets would need converted along with a dozen + attachments
Are you kidding me? I got enougha government in my life. Now you want them deciding what loader hitch I use?Our first tractor had an IH 2 point hitch.

Perhaps it would take the government to come in to set the new standard, and announce a phase out of the old ones. Or get a few brands to only use one rather than the other.
Or perhaps simply get a few dozen lawyers and insurance adjusters sitting around a table watching that Facebook video, and the SSQA will vanish overnight.
Anyway, stop support of the old standard. Give it a few years for people to stock up on supplies. Then a few decades for old stuff to be traded around at farm auctions, but eventually the old stuff will just die off.
