Are all pallet forks created equal?

So, when buying a wood chipper and watching the guy put it on my trailer, I realized I need pallet forks for my B2601. I already have SSQA.

What do I need to know?
I don’t need a bale spear.

Good day.

Depending on all your tasked…if you don’t want a dented hood, I’d recommend getting one with the back guard. (I did not do this and it gave me chance to find out how great KTAC really is 🙄).

Then also if you do get one with a guard, I’d look for ones that the forks set flush to the guard. (This is so when you pull into something that it sets against the guard vs leaving room/movement)

beyond that I think. Step on the side of the frame is helpful as well as slots that you can put a chain link (like 5/16 or 3/8 log chain link in).

I hope this gives some ideas.

Plus adjustable with forks and your good for any pallet
There are different spacing for the vertical mounts, there are different length fork, different width and thickness for different load capabilities
