I'm looking for a light duty pallet fork attachment for my 2305 but JD does not offer one.
Any help in the aftermarket?

How do you see over the bucket?

I use a 2" ball mount with ball to move trailers around my lot. I have it clamped on the bucket similar to the forks. I cannot see to align with the trailers. I either have to get off and on several times or have help.

I've been happy with my set from Horst Welding.
There are a couple of discussions about them.
See: Bradco pallet forks

I have the woods pallet forks with a adapter a welded up for quick connect to work with ,i can not tell you enough how important it is it is to have proper ballast in the rear i used the rim gaurd , great stuff added about 600 lbs on my 2520 dont hesitate to get the pallet forks i use them more than i use my fel bucket , also dont listen to the people who say you wont have enough lifing capicity even if i only lifts 300 lbs its better than try to ge three of your buddys to gather to help you lift somthing

With all the leverage on the forks, do they put enough of a load on the bucket "lip" to bend it?

Do a search on fork lift attchments. or look under build it Feb.23 2006. I built one and only have $130.00 In it. I'm sure with the picturs if you could build one or have it built. If there are any qustions please contact me.

I bought the pallet forks for my 2210 from J.D. They are J.D. brand but they are not light duty. I think they are built for a few different loader's which mean's they are most likely just right for the larger one's but for the 2210 they are to heavy. I take the ballast off my tractor when I mow and if I need to move the forks they make the rear end to light for me. But, as someone posted earlier I use my fork's more that I use my bucket.

I brought my forks on ebay, under Gregs Ground works. They can lift well over a 1000lbs.
