I recently bought their heavy duty pair. It was about $130 with shipping. It comes with the center brace, and two pressure plates to go under the bolts. Each fork has two bolts with large threads. When I received the forks, it only had one pressure plate. After 4 emails, apparently the factory in China shut down and redesigned the facility to manufacture a new plate. It wasn't really difficult, just timely. Anyway, I've been using the forks, and I've had no complaint. I haven't pushed the weight limit, but I've been building a 40' bridge and have been moving all the wood planks and telephone poles without issue.

I agree totally. I bought those same forks and they are garbage! They came with the clamping bolts stripped out. I also had to replace those clamping bolts and had to add steel under the bucket so it would make contact. Not to mention the steel used is chinesium and is real thin for they're weight rating. Probably one of my worst purchases for my tractor yet.

Thanks for your reply. I'm sorry you had to learn the same way I did just how poorly designed these things are.

what size are the clamping bolts, and where did you get them from

@raymondlivermore1959 I replaced them with 7/8 in all thread. Drilled out the old nut and welded in a 7/8 in nut. Same concept as the original, just larger. I got the all thread and bolts from Tractor Supply.

good video.don't you have a knob below your seat to control the speed of your three point i thought all tractors with three points had it.

There is and I fiddled with this knob one day when I was bored. As far as I can tell, I was able to speed up the rate at which the arms dropped but the speed at which they rose has been unaffected.🤷‍♂

To much talk about your video problems.

I agree. Too much bitching in general.

I use my clamp on forks all the time for about 5 yrs. Those openings on top fit a 2x3 perfectly to keep round objects from rolling back or to strap brush to the bucket. Sorry to hear you do not like your forks. All clamp on forks are not perfect (just like all bucket profiles are different) but for $100+ and a few mods they are invaluable to me. Use a piece of flat stock under your clamp pads to spread the weight and keep from bending your bucket. Work with them for a while and I think you will learn how to use them more effectively. If you position a mirror just right it really helps to see the fork position as most tractor hoods get in the way. Good Luck

Why post a video about how badly you screwed up ?
