Where is the best place to get forks for a L302 loader,the kind you screw on.
thanks,

ATI has a pin-type quick attach for LA302 loader type. It weights only 21 lbs. With this you could easily swap between your bucket and forks. About the forks, they have a small pallet fork frame with forks for small tractors.

I'm not sure what you mean by "the one you screw on". Do you mean the one with the pins? It's clear that you're not talking of a Skid Steer type quick attach.

I think he meens the clamp on ones

Do you have welding skills or access to someone who has?

If so then I offer a FREE set of plans to build your own. You can do this for less than $50 in materials. Plans include detailed instructions and a cut list.

The package also includes plans for a clamp-on reciever hitch.

If interested, send me a PM and include your real email address. Over 300 satisfied customers have their set of plans.

You're right Timber... I feel a bit stupid. It happens. Sorry wrong information

I had a set of king cutter clamp on forks for my 302 fel. They are rated for 2000 lbs and work well.

These are the ones I have, They were not cheep but they were the ones I wanted for what I do. I do a lot of fork work. Being around forklifts all the time it is just a way of thinking

Just a matter of caution. When building the forks make provisions for a vertical stop that prevents a log or some such thing rolling back and sitting in your seat. This can happen at full height and fully curled back bucket.

Don't ask on how I know this.

I have the exact same forks timber, manufactured by king cutter.

I'm in the same boat. In facts, I use my forks more than my bucket.

The 302 fel is under rated, we planted big trees with those forks, weight well in excess of kubota's specks!
