If clamp on is something you are looking for :I’m buying a set of quick attach pallet forks for my L3301. Anyone have any recommendations as to which one, length, weight capacity, etc?
I recently got a set of these...

Plenty of capacity for what these small tractors are capable of lifting (in fact, they are overkill). I wanted the 2" receiver in the front for moving trailers as well. I believe I got them at a better price, fast/free shipping. Only downside that I have seen thus far is:
1) the welds on the frame look like they were done by a child (and perhaps, they were)
2) my neighbor keeps borrowing them, so they aren't in my possession when I need them
Yep I saw that. I called them today and I was number 45 in line . I set a call back but haven’t got a call yet.Yeah, the site says 105lbs for the frame only. Doesn't mention the forks oddly enough.
I would concur with the post above that the frame is somewhere around 100 lbs. The 42" forks are quite heavy (say around 60-70 lbs/fork?). My suggestion for your machine would be to get a shorter fork or perhaps at least some that aren't quite as heavy.Do you have any idea what the total weight is? This is the set I have been looking at.
It sounds a little heavy for my BX. My Ford 1720 would do ok with it but I want one set I can use on both.I would concur with the post above that the frame is somewhere around 100 lbs.

The only drawback to the 42" that I have is that they are rather difficult to see. I find myself standing up to see the tips when they are lowered to the ground. I plan on hitting the tips with some bright orange paint.
