Why post a video about how badly you screwed up ?

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

To much talk about your video problems.

I was a bit down hearted and out of pocket when I bought the programming cable for CHIRP with my radios. Chirp doesn't list my model radio BF-88ST PRO EU maybe in the near future they will.

This is quite possibly the funniest video I ever seen. Lmao

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 haven't tried this, but tractor supply has 1/4" x 48" metal rods for $6. You could make one for each implement by cutting and bending the ends.

good job

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.

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.

Looks like a headache. Spreader bar might help.

I use a 12 volt pump from granger

Are there any holes in the drum you could insert a rod to keep it from moving? Also, any plans on covering that hole above the brake assembly?

That was great! The phone worked well as a camera too! I'm glad you didn't tip over the bin this time. It might be worth adding a threaded nut to one of the eyebolts to keep the turnbuckle from vibrating loose. It might it might not. A good tip for drilling on round things is to make a dimple with a center punch, or make a flat spot with a grinder to help the drill start. It can be a pain in the butt! Can't wait for the next video!

As a person who didn't know what this hitch was for, I found this video very informative AND entertaining! Keep up the good work! I can't wait for the next video! 😁 👍

Try leveling the hitches by adjusting the pitch and yaw bolts. It might help with the pinching and uneven lifting you are experiencing. Great job!

Assembly and attachment seem quite straight forward. Hooking up the box it looks like you were having the same issues you would have had if you used Pat's Easy Change without the spacer bar, apparently the spacing is very important; an issue that does not happen with a framed quick hitch. However the ability to change widths is the advantage to both this item and Pats that a solid frame can not accomplish. Several tubers have mentioned that if you have multiple implements with different widths then go with Pats, or maybe this with the spacer bar. It's nice that this is a true Cat 1 and you do not need the expense of spacers for all your implements. Thanks Howard.

Sorry for your trouble with the ends. I think you need a spreader bar that keeps a constant pre determined distance between the arms. Several good vids on how to make one. Very simple. Tractor on my friend.......
