Check out HLA 36" Forks, there about the lightest you'll be able to find and a good fit for a subcompact that has limited lifting capabilities.

There have been comments about forks being too long. I wish mine were a little shorter.

Also, I bought Skid Pro because it is made in usa ......... only to find a made in china label on the forks themselves.

If you are handy with a welder, you can fabricate some forks. I made some with 2x4 steel channels.

Since I rarely use pallet forks, I just made some out of PT 2x4s. No, not rugged, but they just slip on and work fine for objects up to about 200 pounds. Cost, about $20....

What I think would be more handy around here are debris forks for brush, wood, timbers, etc. More expensive than pallet forks, with more tines, but look really handy. I think I will go shopping! :)

I'm in the market for some sort of Forks, I noticed the Debris Forks, they look interesting.
My only heart ache is the shortness of the Forks, does anyone know of a "Clamp-on Debris Forks" that have longer Forks ?

Looking for usable Fork Length somewhere around the 48" mark... not even sure what is a good length ! I'm willing to buy the heavy duty vision or at least the 4000-lbs. Forks.

The main use around my property will be moving brush, smaller trees, maybe some construction lumber, but mostly light weight stuff.

I bought MTL forks when I bought my grapple. I think I got $50 off for buying both at the same time.

My pallet forks are from Earth and Turf, if I remember correctly they were around $700.

I have a set of clamp on debris forks, that I had welded to a SSQA plate. They were about $350, purchased from gwgroundworks.com.

Here are some clever wooden forks somebody made.

I bought Titan economy forks, and I had some scrap 2 1/2" angle iron laying around, so I made debris inserts. They work great.

If you are just looking for something simple, the Titan clamp on forks work well:
3-in Clamp on Pallet Fork With Stabilizer Bar

I got these too. The local MF dealer told me that clamp on forks will bend the bucket lip. It has lifted a lot of heavy loads and the bucket and forks are still perfect. I would buy these again. The Greens Machine loader bucket thumb and these forks have just about quadrupled the amount of use I get out if my little SCUT.

I have the Titan HD 4000# 48" clamp-on forks and have only used them a couple of times. They seem strong and I have only used them on HD buckets so no bending yet. I would rather have a set of ssqa pallet forks though.

Just looked at these, I see the Skid Steer Units and they looks decent enough for what I have to do and the price is good but I need Clamp-On Forks.

Quick use, put them on, clamp and strap them in, and get to cleaning up the brush piles, store them for another five year, so Clamp-Ons seem like the the best approach.

I have attempted to purchase a set through Amazon, good reviews, good feedback, 4000 lift rating, but that fell through too.

I just looking for a very low cost method to remove my brush so I'm Way Up In The Air here or should I say down because there is so little "Made In The USA" and at a reasonable price that I looked at Made In CHINA ! "I know, I know":mad: !

I for one am still looking for the right set of Clamp-On Forks, easy right... HD, Low $$$, and they work, is that too much to ask ?

I'm on a roll so I need to pull over.

Palletforks / Titan make great products, and my experience is you can not beat their customer service. I do not have a set of their pallet forks, but have purchased other attachments from them.
Plus the price includes shipping, so no surprises or gouging at checkout.

I am looking at them now, I can't find out where they are made !

I asked them directly, waiting to hear !

I'm getting tired of the CHINA BS, shipping mostly !

Thanks for the Link.
