Hank, first let me apologize, such a purchase takes a few days thought to decide, and during those few days thought I forgot to return here to use your affiliate link. But I decided to get the USA made standard duty skid steer quick attach pallet forks with 42" tines, and their Economy stump bucket. Last night I ordered them, as they sent the order confirmation E-mail I noticed the shipping address was slightly off, I immediately E-mailed them back providing my correct shipping address. My order and correction happened in the middle of the night, before they opened for business today. I just checked my email and they said that it has already been shipped to the wrong address, but if I want to try to reroute it enroute they can help me out ... for another $75.00 fee. I guess what I am asking, is what are your feelings about their business practices? Do you know if FedEx freight indeed charges them to change address? If they do I understand they can't just eat a fee, but I'm just setting here thinking through what I believe to be the most likely scenario. Oh, I hadn't mentioned, that they offer both standard shipping for around 70 bucks, and free shipping, then as you check out, a 70 dollar "handling" fee appears, with a notation that you're still getting free shipping, the handling is separate. Their practices put me in mind of dealing with Mr. Haney from Green Acres. And as we know, on occasion Mr. Douglas grudgingly dealt with him, the whole town knew what he was, I just wonder how many people get Mr. Haney'd by Titan nowadays. I strongly suspect this will be the last time I deal with them.
Oh stick a fork in it !!,,,...After watching this video I started seriously looking at pallet forks. I just mounted the Titan heavy duty 42 inch pallet forks on the Kioti CK 2610 tonight. Nice set of forks I will say. May not ever use the hay spears but they came with 5000 lb rated. Thanks for your review, Sold me on a set. Have a great day on your tractor
Hey Hank, A little secret to sliding forks is to stand on the inside of the fork and lift and slid to the outside. I have run a forklift for over 30 years and that is the easiest way to slide your forks. Plus put some good grease on the rail and it helps too.
I just received mine. I'm have a lot of problems getting the pins to go into the slots correctly. For one thing, it's difficult to see or tell when they do go in. One of the reasons is the pins don't extend down far enough. I kept waiting for a 'click' that will never happen. This due to the slots on the frame tapered and the pins are not???
If someone has a smaller tractor they may need to consider lighter pallet forks so that they can lift more weight if they have a limited weight capacity. One needs to consider all things before purchasing. A smaller tractor that can not lift as much weight does not need a set of forks the weigh so much they limit there capacity with forks that will lift twice as much as the tractor.
You will wonder how you did with out them . I paint bright yellow 6” of the tip also . Makes you more aware of them when working around them and really easy too see when going in under something . Spray the upper and lower rail with graphite spray and you can use your foot at the fork half way up the back too push them easy after pin is unlocked . 👍 Nice quality forks too 👍
I like those forks, Hank. I have a pair for the little GC Massey but wouldn't mind a pair for my other tractor. I've pretty much used my grapple for everything but there are times I'd like to use adjustable forks. I would use them to carry my generator from the house to the tractor shed in hurricane weather. I'd use them for hoisting my ATV off the ground. The best part is they are universal-hitch (SSQA) capable for easy on & off. Full watch, Hank. Have a fine weekend.
Hey Hank! Another great video! I have bucket forks for my BX but id love to have a legit pallet fork so I can lift more without making my bucket bend LOL. Nice review there! I put all my implements on pallets. Its easier for me to move attachments around with my pallet forks! Youll find yourself putting your trash bags on a pallet and loading them into the truck LOL
Great video! I am a novice tractor owner - and frankly when i received the Titan Attachment Pallet Forks - WITHOUT ANY MANUAL!!! - This video helped me with the guesswork! Thank you Sir!
our tractor could really use a set of those. so i was thinking of asking my parents for those on christmas or my birthday. because i noticed amazon's only selling them for around 400 dollars at the moment. and it would be great for moving some of our railroad ties around that were putting around our driveway.
I've got some Titan attachments and I am very happy with them. My forks are another brand however. Forks are something everyone needs they just don't know it until they get a set.
One of the things I learned recently after all these years was if you tilt the forks slightly forward it will slide better when you’re moving and adjusting the forks
I agree on how handy pallet forks are, we have them at all three farms; originally intended to get one set and get them when needed as they are only four to six miles apart. That just didn't get it. I normally only buy Land Pride or other "name brand", but I went to my LP dealer to order a set, he said, "I'll be glad to order them, but they are over priced and I have never sold any and use generic ones on my farm." I bought what he had on hand, but have since bought a Titan tree puller and a couple other things and they work well for us. A word of friendly advice, don't put a hole in the end for a trailer ball. It "can" be done, but with caveats.
Good info on the forks are they still working great for you? I just ordered a set for my JD 5045e literally just got off the phone with Titan and searched TH-cam and your video popped up. Take care brother.
Thanks Hank. I saw this video sometimme back and had to chuckle when you siad you hadn't been to the gym for ?? and then Gina said "come-on now"....yep, things change and shift a bit as you become more "seasoned (that's the polite word for....old). 🙂. I'm about to buy forks and thought of your video about Titan pallets.
Right on Don. I use my forks probably 3 times a week. They are handy. I have a link to Titan in the description if you go with them. We get a kickback if you use that link. Just letting you know. 👍
@@HamiltonvilleFarm Roger that. Just trying to figure which pallets to purchase. I want the Made in U.S.A. that you mentioned they sell. 42 inch forks.
Great video 👍 Pallet forks are going to change your life trust me you forget you have a bucket for that Mahindra tractor LoL. Thanks for sharing have a great rest of the weekend.
Hi Hank, It looks like the top of the forks secure well with the pin but in the video, at time stamp 6:45 mins you wobble the bottom of the fork and it does not seem to lock in. Is it normal for the bottom of the forks to move back and forth? thanks for the video review.
I've ordered these forks, but haven't received them yet. But I've worked with other forks before and I'd say that's normal. You lock the top in so it stays stationary, but the bottom of the fork is just gravity resting it on the bottom of the frame. This allows the fork to move a little bit for the load to settle in and not be perfectly rigid mounted forks that have the load shift with little warning.
Pretty Cool Hank. My co worker uses pallet forks on his Track loader to dig up driveways. He shoves the forks underneath the driveway, lifts and it snaps like a pretzel . Then puts the broken pieces in the dumpster. Big money in it. Thanks Bubba. Mark.
I've really got to get me a quick attach, I've had my titan attachment forks on the Massey for weeks because they are a serious pain to take on and off but I must say I use the heck out of them. Thanks for sharing! Enjoy your weekend.
When I got my tractor I stole my brother's pallet forks from his skid steer to move brush. Not as good as a grapple but a heck of alot better than dragging by hand. Also a better way to adjust your forks is raise your fel and "dump" the forks so they are perpendicular to the ground. This takes the leverage weight off of them and they slide much easier.
Enjoyed the pallet forks review. I got my pallet forks from EA. You will enjoy them and will be surprised how often you can use them for all kind of chores. Also, nice bib overalls Hank!
Hank, your gonna use those forks more than you think. I got my titan forks a couple weeks ago. I went with the 48 in. I think mine weighed 320lbs total. I love them. Thanks for the video.
great video! looking forward to updates down the road when you find more projects to use them for!. I have to admit, since i bought a set of forks , i use them more than my bucket!
Yeah they are nice for sure. We have so much to do around here, they're gonna come in handy. Thank you for the comment and I hope you have a great weekend 👍
which are the best pallet forks ? I've seen other people having trouble with the quality of the welds on their titan pallet forks sources: www.amazon.com/Pallet-Attachment-Trailer-Receiver-Loader/dp/B01AAU0DRO/ref=pd_rhf_cr_p_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=9GZZ4R1R8PAR6G86WX09#customerReviews view the ratings th-cam.com/video/aozHAcyCi2w/w-d-xo.html
The thing is I live in Germany. And when I order something from the US there is no return possibility. I must order quality or I end up dumping a lot of money 😅
I’d like to see a tractor video with a front “cage” for lifting a person up to paint, trim, etc. something that would fit on pallet forks etc. kind of like scallfolding or a scissor jack.
When you were putting the first fork on and got it bound up and you were shaking it I instinctively shook my iPad as if I was helping. It has been a long winter.

Thanks Kevin. I'll start trying that technique. I appreciate that. Have a good weekend.
Good video Hank (and Gina) haha. I'm sure you'll find the forks useful around the ranch.
Yes sir. I can already tell, they are gonna get used a lot. Have a good weekend Phil.
I got the one from Titan that has the hitch receiver several weeks ago. It works great for putting trailers into tight spots.
Yes that's a great option for one👍
I just received mine. I'm have a lot of problems getting the pins to go into the slots correctly.

I kept waiting for a 'click' that will never happen. This due to the slots on the frame tapered and the pins are not???
I grease up the rails on mine so the forks slide side to side much easier
I think that's what I'm gonna have to do👍 thanks for the comment. we appreciate it

Thank you Don. I am really looking forward to using them around the property 👍
Houndsman, you have the 42" or the 36" on your GC? I'm worried that >300lb forks are too heavy for such a small sub compact.
Don't be dropping one of them forks on your foot Brother ! 😁

I use my Titan pallet forks everyday and haven't had any issues. I recommend them.
The thing is I live in Germany.
And when I order something from the US there is no return possibility. I must order quality or I end up dumping a lot of money 😅
Yeah I hear ya. Definitely something to consider
Great video y’all! Loved the artistic B-Roll 😉 ... like the bib overalls Hank, makes you look like a legit farmer! Lol!
Well, we do have chickens, so I think that qualifies me 😂
Oh yes, you need a cowboy hat for sure!
@@TheNeuAdventure I wear one sometimes 😊 th-cam.com/video/PAOpBD2h8eg/w-d-xo.html
This was interesting . New friend Ruthie here
Welcome. Thank you for your support 👍
I’m not sure those pallet forks are rated for that. 👀. Another great video. I have a Titan quick connect and love it.
Lol. I need to demo them properly with something like a vw beetle or something 😂
I’d like to see a tractor video with a front “cage” for lifting a person up to paint, trim, etc. something that would fit on pallet forks etc. kind of like scallfolding or a scissor jack.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas yeah I've seen guys use a IBC tote for that. I'm not sure I need that here. We don't have anything high enough to warrant that.
I’ll research the IBC totes. Thanks. I need one for pruning pecan trees, etc.
Big thumbs up my friend
Thanks John!
I want the same setup you have in this video. How do I get it ? Do you have order number? Thanks
We have a Branson tractor now and like it a lot better than the Mahindra.
Hamiltonville Farm I have a Mahindra 1640 and want the same thing. Is there a order number for this set up!
If you look in the description box underneath the video, a link for Titan Attachments is there. That should help you out👍
When you were putting the first fork on and got it bound up and you were shaking it I instinctively shook my iPad as if I was helping. It has been a long winter.
😂😂😂 I appreciate the virtual help😊

I am rewatching this video and dang if I didn’t shake it again!
Lol
Just ordered a set myself
👍
Ha! Awesome i was just looking at these!
Right on👍 you'll love them!
Which model did you buy for your mahindra?
42” but I think I would have went 48 if I had to do it over
@@HamiltonvilleFarm ok thanks
I have a titan extra long pallet fork and love it for moving brush of all things.
Yeah I saw the video you posted about cleaning up the pasture. 👍
Send me the old four wheeler
Lol. It's already gone😂
mate those welds are absolute rubbish
Thanks for watching. They've held up really good so I wouldn't say they are rubbish at all.
still rubbish
Nah
Nice
Thanks brother 👍
Great
