Pallet Forks

[dragoneggs]

I had 42 inch forks and a 48 in two post bale spike so I went with 60inch adjustable forks and they are the best for me love the reach

All depends on your equipment and your applications.

We have the Titan 48" pallet forks with the hay spear. We also have the Titan 72" forks extension. If we had known when we bought the 48" forks that we would end up also buying the 72" forks extensions, we would have bought the 42" forks. The 6" difference makes a difference in maneuverability. But if we didn't have the 72" extensions and had only the forks without extensions, we would go with the 48".

My tractor is small. I went with the Titan short clamp on units. Best $130 I have spent. Just think about what you want to do and decide what works for you.

Any set will make your life easier.

Got lost in the discussion, op Magnum has a 1025, hence the question of 4100 lb capacity. OOPS

I realize you buy a set of these and clamp them on the bucket. I see Titan makes some that looks like they just replace the FEL.
Is that correct? Remove the FEL and snap in the pallet fork assembly?

... Remove the FEL and snap in the pallet fork assembly?

Well, you remove the bucket. Then quick attach the fork assy. But yes, very quick. I just received a set of these last week. Work great and no issues adjusting as others have reported.

Amen to that.

And after a couple of months, the wifey will say; "Those sure are handy. Why did we wait so long to get them?"

I have a love hate relationship with my not sure of brand name clamp on forks ive had 15 years. Dont have a quick attach on my l35 and dont always use the forks on pallets so sometimes they moved, the tips would almost cross trying to get under junk. I took some 2.5 square tube. welded on the forks behind the vertical tube and have a 2” tube to slide in that keeps the forks parallel now and much much better. Im planning on getting quick attach forks for my new tractor so maybe I can see forks better because this superman cant see through the bucket that my old forks would clamp on to and leave me guessing

Welded up some pallet forks for the Ford 3000 that I originally brought for the acreage. Not a love hate relationship, just hate. I’ll say they were better than nothing for some application. Built a proper qa set for my new tractor, much better.

Amen to that.

Here’s another vote for the wife seeing the usefulness of the pallet forks!

This tractor stuff is gonna get expensive! My NX will not be delivered until 2 weeks or so and already plan to purchase a box blade in Nov. Told the wife we should budget for one implement a year. Was planning on buying a grapple next year but now need to add a set of pallet forks as well.
Luckily I know a dealer located right beside Titan so the price should be good.

buy a set of old used forks and fabricate them to connect to your tractor it will save u some $$ - I fabricated my SS 2 rod bale spike to fit 3 point and its a god send I can use on both machines - it is made to stab or be used as forks, it doesn't sit totally flat on the ground nor is it adjustable but I can throw a piece of sheeting on it and use it for a make shift carry all for so much and of course logs or lumber or even pick up pallets as it will go into most of them


it cost me 175bucks ;-)

i also fabricated a bracket for hauling my 15 gallon fimco sprayer to fit my 3 point as well as another bracket fabrication for my electric seeder/spreader on my 3 point - they are nothing like these guys on here with all their great skills but mine goes up/down and serves my purpose - im not a master fabricator but it gets the job done and all were made from scrap metal - i don't have 50 bucks combined in both of those two fabrication projects - u can save some $$ just takes a little time making stuff and/or scouring ads for deals - i don't have a large budget for things and growing up with little i have learned to be creative - my brain is more talented than my skills tho LOL - I blew my budget on my tractor due to age/wife/daughter wanting to help as i work twice as hard as i used to but only get half as much done ;-) at some point in my life i have realized that i am going to need things to be easier as i watch my dad struggle to do what he used to do also.

anything to make things easier/convenient and not have the breakdowns is more of a necessity going forward - i hate every minute of this aging thing but i will never give up and probably die doing something i love/enjoy - bring on the hard work - i aint skeered
