  • I just picked up this pair of clamp on 1500 lb forks from Amazon and they seem to be well made for the price. Basically the materials to build a set would cost almost as much so I got lazy and bought them for instant satisfaction. Looks like they are going to be a real back saver for my mill and just moving things around.

      Get on their email list and watch for a sale. They usually have 10 % discount codes. Mine have worked great and are the perfect match for my little deere. Thanks for watching.

    Yup, just ordered a set of these for my little deere, and they fit my little budget quite well.

    Thanks! I'm ordering mine right now from amazon. I will do the chain wrap thing that one of the commenters did though.

      You can sometimes save a little money by subscribing to Titans emails and they often offer sales. Mine have worked great but the biggest load my little tractor can pick up is 500 lbs. They are very handy. Thanks for watching.

    Very nice set of forks but they were not dead center on the bucket but very nice have a great day.

    I bought the same set to go on my tractor about 2 years ago. Now you will wonder how you ever got along without them.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  7 лет назад +1

      Like you said, I should have gotten them years ago. This is the first set I have seen that is reasonably priced and well made.

      I needed something to move slabs off the mill. The older I get the less I can lift. I could not believe how affordable they were from amazon.

    That's a great price. I paid $200 for a set of used ones that are very similar and thought I got a bargain. Hope they hold up well for you.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  7 лет назад +1

      The price is what sold them, I did not expect them to be so well made. I think they will be a great back saver for my mill.

  • @winki51z
    @winki51z 3 года назад +1

    I have a set. Don't expect them to hold up, when getting close to there capacity. Had mine straightened and welded twice. The problem area is. where they clamp to the bucket. If you pick up ONLY 200 lbs you will be OK. Any more they will spread, where they clamp down; and crack the welds. I used them only to lift small logs; 7-8 foot long and 8 inch diameter.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  3 года назад

      Mine are still like new. I pick up 500 to 600 pound loads with them all the time. Over 700 pounds the back wheels of my tractor come off the ground and the welds are fine. Contact them if you got a pair with defective welds. Titan makes high quality products and I am happy with everything I have purchased from them so far.

      @@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 I understand, I wasn't sure what your John Deere 4100 could lift; so I did a search on Tractor Data. The 4100 has less that 1/3 the horsepower than the tractor I was using. HP determines what hydraulic pumps are used on the tractor for hydraulics/lifting. I had them on a tractor with over 3 times the HP and hydraulic pressure= lifting power. You were OK with these clamp on forks, I need a much stronger pair.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  3 года назад

      When lifting always buy something rated for twice the load you are dealing with at a minimum to be safe. Titan makes amazing affordable products that last if not abused or overloaded.

  • @marknelson8435
    @marknelson8435 5 лет назад +1

    I really like mine too. I usually leave the cross member off, just for ease of taking the forks off and on. Doesn't seem to make a difference in the function. Cheers.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 лет назад +1

      I find it helps keep them from twisting if you hit the side of the pallet when trying to get under it on uneven ground. Thanks for watching.

    Hi, I just came across your video channel the other day as I just purchased a harbor freight trencher and now I am hooked!! You are AWESOME!! Do you live in Sodus Point? I live just west of Rochester. Interested in adopting me as a grandson (-: if I had a grandpa like you I would never go home (not sure if my wife would approve of that :-) You seem like the nicest guy and I love how busy you keep yourself you really know how to enjoy life. I subscribed and will be watching all your videos. Take care and God Bless! Sincerely, Howard

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  6 лет назад

      I am south of Sodus. I could use a grandson that liked working outdoors. Mine just play on their x box. When l first got my trencher, I set it up and put a grandson on it. He moved the bucket a little then jumped off to go inside and play games on his tablet. I can't figure out kids these days. Hope your trencher works as good as mine has. They are very handy. Thanks for watching and subscribing.

      It would cost $100. Just to buy the steel drops to build them plus supplies so the way I see it someone in China built them for free. They are just light duty, but so is my tractor.

      They have worked great so far. Can easily lift anything that my loader will lift with on problem. I feel they were a great buy. Thanks for watching.

  • @dave4854
    @dave4854 7 лет назад

    the problem with forks fastened to the bucket is that it puts an al full strain on the bucket and lift cylinders , mounting parts of the loader, every foot sticking out from the bucket compounds the weight on the cylinders, I did that to a loader yrs ago and was rebuilding the cylinders ever yr, even broke some factory welds loose. but it was a larger loader and I was loading logs

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  7 лет назад +1

      So far I see no sign of stress with the small loads that I move. This little tractor has a great pressure relief to keep the cylinders from overloading the tractor or themselves. They area great back saver, time will tell. Thanks for watching.

  • @benjaminb4056
    @benjaminb4056 4 года назад +2

    Im sure im 3 years late (and by now you have realised yourself), but you should reverse the crossbar otherwise the handle to set the width will get bashed off as you drive into pallets.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  4 года назад +3

      I stopped using the cross bar. Don't really need it with pallets and I put uprights in the pockets to make it safer for unloading tractor trailers. Thanks for watching.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  6 лет назад +1

      I get alot of use from them. Make sure your bucket is strong enough because I have seen comments about people being able to bend their bucket with them. Titan had a great sale last week, I don't know if it is still on. They were like 110.00 with free shipping for just the forks.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  6 лет назад +1

      Looks like the 43 inch ones are still ion sale. For a little more you can get the set with the stabilizer. www.palletforks.com/12-deals/day-1-clamp-on-forks/clamp-on-pallet-forks-1-500-lbs-capacity.html

    Thanks for the video. I recently purchased a ballast box from Titan, and it was well made and a good price. I am going to order these forks, based on your review. I have a kubota b7610, with a LA352 loader. Like your Deere, the forks are rated for heavier loads than the FEL, so I should be ok. I wonder if it’s less stress on the bucket, if I also use the chains?

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 лет назад +1

      I see no damage to my bucket yet but it is only 4 ft wide and there are reinforcing strips running front to back in the area the forks mount. The hydraulics are also load limited so the further out on the forks you are the less it will lift. I don't know what your tractor will lift but it's probably close to mine and there shouldn't be a issue. Chains would help if you see any signs of stress. Watch for a sale. Thanks for watching.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  6 лет назад +1

      Tractor can only pick up 500 pounds on the forks and no sign of bending yet. Deere makes a strong bucket with a thick wear strip and ribs on the bottom.

    • @Porty1119
      @Porty1119 3 года назад +1

      Depends on what the bucket floor is made of. I've got a set of these for an EIMCO loader that's got a 1" thick austenitic steel bucket lip and multiple stiffener strips. Little thing is rated to tram 5000lbs.

      They have worked out great for me so far. My tractor will only pick up 500 lbs with them on and there is no sign of any damage to the bucket or forks. Great for unloading trucks. Thanks for watching.

  • @19Photographer76
    @19Photographer76 7 лет назад

    The one really nice feature is the ability to adjust the width. What do you use your landscape rake for? Mine only seems to work well raking the stone in the driveways. It doesn't do well for branches or piles of leaves/walnuts.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  7 лет назад

      I think it is best to keep them wide where the bucket is the strongest. I only use the rake for final leveling and removing stones from areas that I tear up. The best way I found to deal with walnuts is take the trees down and build furniture from the lumber.

    • @19Photographer76
      @19Photographer76 7 лет назад +1

      Ha! I've done that for 2 of our 3 - 180yr old boys. My wife is totally tired of walnut furniture and I'm still trying to sell some of the lumber. Thanks!

  • @charlesstevens9030

    I bought these and had a problem with the spreader bar. The weld keeps breaking

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  3 года назад

      No problem with mine. Do you enter the pallets straight on. and have the round locked on the cutting edge? It would take a lot of side force to break those welds. Thanks for watching.

    • @charlesstevens9030
      @charlesstevens9030 3 года назад +1

      I broked the weld 3 different times. I not much of a welder. But I keep repairing it.

    • @charlesstevens9030
      @charlesstevens9030 3 года назад +1

      I broke the weld gy lifting it on large bush

  • @SA-lr1sf
    @SA-lr1sf 3 года назад +1

    Now tell the truth. Tell people that they move around and they come off in the midle of the job. I have a Titan pair just like yours. They are heavy but the part that clamps on the Bucket could be longer.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  3 года назад

      No they can't. The block welded on the back locks behind the cutting bar that sticks down on my bucket. No way they can pull off if the clamp is tight. I love them. Thanks for watching.

    @sideskraft 6 лет назад

    Have you done any 500+ pound loads with those forks?

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  6 лет назад

      No, I have found about all my tractor can safely lift is about 400 lbs. The load center moves way out with a pallet and it gets tippy even with the weight box. With a bigger tractor they should be able to handle it.
