I used these forks in all the wrong ways as soon as I got them. I have a 30hp Kubota. Father in law had a big project at his house moving whole shrubs that were at least 15 foot tall and 15 foot deep. An excavator was used to pull them out of the ground and I was set to the task of untangling them to place them in a pile and burning them. I was grossly overloading my tractor to the point where th bucket wouldnt lift. No damage to the forks were to be found after 10 hours of serious abuse. After that project was done I used them to remove pallets that were too heavy to lift off of my trailer. I could get them about 1 inch off of my deck and then lower them to the ground. Rear tires would actually lift off of the ground as the load lowered. I have water ballest in the rear and a box blade. Awesome product. Small yellow plates that are sent with the forks to protect the bucket from j bolts started to warp. Went to the shop and found some plates that were 3/8\" thick and double the surface area. No further issues after that. I would highly reccomend
Pallet forks, installed as they should, and performed very well. You do have to be careful as they are designed to clamp onto a bucket, and the clamping point in your bucket is the weak point. That aside, excellent product for the money.
Very impressive for the price work well and seems really strong I used the fork at the warehouse to move trusses and roofing materials. I also use the forks to remove a large section of roof that collapsed moving it from the ground into a large dumpster
