Forks 3pt pallet forks

[Creamer]

Here's another possible option.
Titan 3PT Scissor Lift

I looked at that but I do not understand how it works. Does the extra part on the 3 pt side attach somehow to the tractor? If so how does it keep from binding when the 3 pt goes up and down? What do you attach the forks to?

The top link is removed. That upper end on the left connects to the tractor where the toplink usually goes.
Here's another link.

Thanks! I feel stupid but i was looking at the photo from Titan that you posted and I couldn't get it.

The does give lift but I would have to put a lot more weight ont he front to stick my pallets that far out the back. Just today I probably had 450 lbs on the loader bucket to lift 2500 on the 3 pt and my steering was almost non-existent.

Yep...no top hydraulic......no need really, solution is 2 tractors, one with a FEL....

lol

I have the same situation on my 32HP Ford.
The 3pt. forks will not be high enough to load most trailers, but they are VERY handy.
I have had more than 2500 lbs. on mine.
I also do have a set of FEL forks on a larger tractor, which of course will lift much higher.
I bought my 3pt. forks from Agri Supply.
Great people to deal with!

Just like fried - Very useful, one of the first attachments I bought

I modified my Landpride forks that fit my FEL SSQA to also fit my 3PH. The purpose is to get the lift capacity for carrying an IBC full of water without the strain, wear and tear on my FEL, plus I felt it would be safer than on the front (if my FEL could lift it all).

They ARE pretty handy, even if you do have a front end loader...

They are VERY easy to build too, I've built several sets...

I picked up a 3pt forklift for my old L3200 for $200. Between it weighing 500ish lbs & the extra length of my Quick Hitch it wasn't worth it. Would lift as high as my loader. The 3pt stopped lifting my IBC tote between 1/2 & 1/3 full (same as loader). The forklift would happily lift more, but my 3pt was not willing & I wasn't willing to risk breaking things lifting with the forklift over what the 3pt stopped at. I wasn't willing to give up the QH either. Ended up selling the 3pt forklift for a couple bucks more than I had into it.

Hi All,

I got an old International tractor, and first thing I did was go buy some forks

The old tractor has had some hydraulic hoses added to rear, but no control, but.....

I found that the forks do just what I want, I have put them to a lot of use already, carrying and moving containers of timber, moving my quite heavy post hole digger around, and removing some huge stumps that had lot of dirt in them and did not want to dull my chainsaw on, so lifted them onto my 2 tonne trailer, one at a time, prob 500-1000kg each and off the property (were right in our view)

But, there is more....I have top link adjusted so I can pallet items on and off my trailer, no drama, trailer can take 2 pallets easy, so now I can handle many goods, such as a load of tiles etc that used to have to all be done by hand, because of the way the 3 pt links work, it is no drama, as soon as they hit the ground they straighten themselves up, so happy days ! I think I may get another tractor, one may have forks on permanent.

No stacking, but with acreage, that is ok

Thanks all for your input
