    If anyone is looking I just found Amazon/Titan distributors has then for a pretty good price 3k load capacity for $479 with free shipping and no sales tax already set up for a SSQA best price I've found local was $575 plus tax and I had to go pick up 30 miles each way.

    I started palletized my wood storage last year, after renting a set of forks for a project last week decided FEL mounted are so much better than the 3point pallet forks I've been using. I wound up buying a set.

    Ps they also have bolt on tooth bars, I WILL NOT BUY, I will not buy, I may not buy, we will see what I buy.

    They also sell AR500 dueling tree paddles. I've been looking for those.

    Wound up having to go pick them up as they would not deliver on anything shorter than a 48' semi. Could have got them Friday night but to much else going on.

    IMG_1675.JPG Even has a handy receiver hitch, I could see this getting used frequently. I think you can move a trailer without removing the forks if you tilt down slightly.

    Nice looking forks. I use ours as much as the bucket. Enjoy.

    I look forward to many years use out of them!
    mikeward they were supposed to deliver to house with free shipping FedEx but would not. I probably could have talked them into it but did not have the time or energy to set up a delivery time with my schedule it was easier to go the the freight yard and pick them up.

    DNH good luck with the forks
    I was home when they came and helped unload them. The packing was totally destroyed.
    I use these forks more than the bucket and backhoe.
    My forks do not have a receiver tube welded in. They started doing that the year after I got em.

    Just had to move some trailers and the ball mounted on fork made it real simple.
    Got it from Titan also. I have the first one shown and for $35.00 you can't go wrong.

    I built my own set of forks many years ago and they are very useful on a tractor. When I logged with my tractor (and not my bulldozer or skidder) they would really stack tree length wood as well as move pallets of pellets for my fathers pellet boiler.

    Boy say Pallets of pellets 10 times fast huh? :)
