Buying Advice Forks foe BX25d

ru499 · Sep 11, 2014

Am looking to buy a bx25. If I get the quick attach for the loader arms, will the kubota forks (k9184) go on the quick attach or do these forks need a sub-frame? Thanks.

The forks go on the QA. You will need the carrier(basically the frame for the forks), forks themselfs and the QA. The QA is great for quickly changing from bucket to forks or grapple or snow blade. Well worth the price.

Thanks for the info.

Here's a pic I saved from another post a while back. Doesn't really show the QA, but you can just barely see the QA pin at the end of the left-side FEL arm. The forks are priced separate from the frame since you can buy 2,3, or 4 of them I guess though almost everyone gets just two I would imagine.

Well, I took the plunge! Got the QA and forks. I'm very happy with my choice. Thanks for the help.

Now you need a grapple third function valve and you will be set. good looking rig

Don't forget that, with the quick attach, the pivot point moves forward, and thus the carrying capacity is reduced.

Congrat's. Please post a pic of the forks mounted when you get a chance. While I have the FEL quick hitch for the Landpride Grapple, I don't have the forks, but would love to get them eventually.

I'll post a pic ASAP, probably on Sat when I have time to mess with it.
