pallet forks for my B3030

dentaltractor · Oct 3, 2005

I want to buy pallet forks for my B3030. Purpose is to move things such as logs, railroad ties etc. I will also use it to move pallets of plant shrubs etc for land scapeing. I may even move some decorative bolders. My dealer has quoted me 850.00 for quick attach forks. Is this a good price? thanks

I have a L3130 and have checked with several dealers on pallet forks. The average price I have quotes on is $550.00-$650.00. So I think your price is high. I would check some other dealers.

Is this a price for the quick attach forks? If so then I will check around, that's a large difference in price.
Is there anything else I should keep in mind will I'm looking such as brand or design features?

These prices were for quick attach, and the forks were moveable.
What part of the country are you in? Other members may be able to direct you to other dealers.

Also do a search for pallet forks, I remember reading some post with prices within the last week or so.

I bought my pallet forks from Markham Welding. www.markhamwelding.com They were just over $400 last year. They are well made, good value and the people at Markham Welding will really work with you. Shipping is reasonable and fast. Check them out.

I tried to get a set myself from Markham, they told me that they were all out.. Check back in December.

850.00 for quick attach forks. 
That's good price for a set of Kubota pallet forks. Most common price is $950.
Do you have a quick attach for your B3030. If not you will need to one. Kubota makes a quick coupler. Which is a pin type QA. I have this system for my LA402 FEL.
Here is a post from a fellow B3030 owner. Click Here Note pin with bar welded to it, at lower rear of forks. This is pin for quick coupler.
