Quick attach and brush guard cost?

Bobvt · Dec 10, 2004

Can someone give me prices for the following: (1) a quick attach for a 264 loader, (2) a 78 inch quick attach bucket, and (3) a brush guard for a 6500?

Bob,
I have a 7520 and my dealer had a weld shop make my quick attach out of my regular bucket. It is similiar to a skid loader hook up but this only has 1 pin to pull and then drop it off and hook up to the next attatchment. Very simple in design. It was also cheaper than I could buy one through Mahindra. We ended up going this route because we were having trouble getting the correct quick attach as they kept sending the wrong one twice after waiting about a month. I'll try to get you some pics so you can see how simple this is. We did the same thing with the 6500 that I had before and now he does this with all the people wanting a quick attach.

Brain,

Your attachment mechanism sounds very interesting. I'd be interested in seeing some photo. Thanks for getting back to me.

Brian, where did you get your weldon hooks for your fel? Looks like grab hooks on each end and slip in the middle. Are these indeed weldon hooks?

Thanks

Mike,
I purchased the hooks at a local farm store(Theisen's) by the bulk chain. They are just regular chain hooks, I just cut the ends where they normally attach to the chain off with a cut-off saw and then welded them on. They work great!
