Bucket Hooks Hooks on the FEL bucket

What about the KL6010 FEL?

if you look at the pics in your chain thread thats KL6010. Why are you opposed to just having the dealer weld them at time of purchase? That is by far simplest and most probably cheapest since there's a very good chance they will just do it for free.

If you really want to support Kenny he has weld hooks on his site too :)

Can't comment on Ken's hooks, but they look good. But I absolutely agree put some type on there, any is better than none. One of the first things I did was weld a set on mine. I just bought painted (non zinc plated) hooks, welded a piece of 3/8" flat stock to the top and back of my bucket to distribute weight & welded the hooks onto that. Also added a big D ring in the center. Use them more than anything else, always moving things around. Actually loaded my disk harrows today with them to bring home from the farm and repair. Good luck

Here is a shot of my set up

When did I ever post I was opposed to the dealer welding on hooks?

Kens hooks can be purchased with the clevis loops as well as the hooks in one package.

I welded a piece of 3/4” thick X 3” wide flat bar all the way across the top and put a hitch in the middle and use it to lift stuff as well as chain it down. The clevis can be turned around out of the way or taken off.

Just a couple of examples of using the bucket hooks. Picked up a neighbors wood splitter for repair and using my roof rake. Later.

I had my dealer weld 4 hooks across the top of my bucket when I bought the tractor. Used them many times, would hate to not have them.
