I have 42" and tried 48" before buying, but found the 48" were too difficult maneuvering where I normally use them. This past weekend I was in the woods cutting up downed limbs and trees with forks on front to lift limbs off the ground and carry-all on the back to load wood on. Then I wished I had set of 36" to get around easier.

This blank plate is the piece that is already on the SSQA forks, won't work to add 3pt pins you would need the QA frame with locking handles to mate into the forks.
palletforks.com carries a blank skid steer mounting plate that all you would need to do is weld some tabs to the back to attach the three point hardware to. 3/8" Attachment Mount Plate Skidsteer bobcat kubota (12 MP)

Not all fork frames are built the same but I was lucky mine were thick enough to weld extra vertical steel in with holes for the 3pt pins without interfering with the QA and use it on the back. 2013-07-28 13.30.14.jpg 2013-07-28 18.55.14.jpg

They raised the price to $595

They were $595 but I used the "make offer" and offered $500 and they excepted. Didn't think they would but I was happy when they did lol

I picked up a Versetech 42" SSQA pallet fork last week. It's been wonderful! Thank you for your advice.
