DIY bucket level indicator

[ruko]

I need a level indicator for my bucket attached pallet forks. I need to know if the forks are level in any position the forks are relative to the ground.

Would something like this work?

Unless you have self leveling option on FEL it probably not going to happen.... Usually rudimentary bucket level indicators only work when bucket/forks are on ground level....

A quick search will probably show up about 20 different bucket/fork level indicators from simple to real complex...

After you're done shopping try You Tube. You'll find a few ideas there.

A remote tilt sensor (inclinimete) with a remote display would work. Some are self contained and can connect to your phone via bluetooth and use that as the display. Another one of those things the price is as high as you want. I would expect something tiny like for a drone would do the job and be reasonable. Or you can get them with dedicated displays and wired to vehicle power.
Ebay, Amazon, AliExpress will have them.

My LS came from the factory equipped with a bucket level indicator rod somewhat similar to the one in Jeepheads video, I definitely appreciate having it !
One of my Kubota friends operated my tractor for a couple hours and said he was going to make one for his Kubota that came without one.
