I have been looking to purchasing some pin on pallet forks for my B2620 but cannot seem to find a source for them. Any body know where I might find some?
Thx Mike M

Mike,
I know many may frown from buying this off of Amazon - but I did - and for the money, I think it is WELL worth it.
Now am I going to pick up a 1000 pound something? O hell no - I bought this because I can carry 2x4's and logs, and other long stuff that cannot fit into the bucket.
As ol Clint Eastwood said - "a man's got to know his limitations!"
And I do, well, I thing so.
Pick the one that will work for you - and I would suggest getting the longest cross bar that comes standard.

Hayspear.com (Washburn)
They make all sorts of pin on items …either in-stock…or quickly produced. I”ve used them with complete satisfaction… American Made…NOT one of those “take your money and disappear” acts.
(edit: I had planned on Clamp On Forks…but decided to avoid bending my bucket with light-duty clamp-on and bought the Heavy Duty pin-ons* from hayspear.com 4 years later…still one of the BEST things I ever bought for my tractor.)
*rather than convert my existing loader and bucket to SSQA …. I had a special quick-attach mfr’d by Dan Heibert that is similar to the original Kubota Quick Attach… which is (my opinion) just as easy but stronger/less likely to fail and no “levers” or springs to get bent and twisted. Now I can use all my original Kubota Pin-on attachments. wrote about it here:
LA1001 or 1002 Pallet Forks
I had a difficult time finding pallet forks for my pin-on LA-1002 loader but these folks make a fine product and I thought anyone needing the same might find the link useful. (I did, however, get tired of pin-on and bought a pin-on quick-attach adapter from danannah@gmail as demonstrated in the...

Here’’s a video showing how it works..BUT..I leave the top pins permanently installed in all my attachments so it’s even faster/simpler: :

Are you talking about PIN ON (replace whole bucket) or CLAMP ON (clamps to edge of bucket)?
Is your FEL bucket pin on or SSQA?
Amazon should have both type if SSQA. So should your dealer. Tractor supply will have the clamp on forks,

hmm, possible option....
convert to SSQA !
While one time, up front cost may be high..you ain't getting any younger ! Trying to align 4 pin anything can be a real 'frustration', especially if you have to do it 3-4 times in one day without a big ,flat chunk of concrete to help !!!

the light duty should be fine on b2620 if you aren't planning on abusing them. you aren't going to bend the bucket if you ratchet strap it at a diagonal like you're supposed to. I bought a pair of steel cable tensioners to use with mine.
I am trying to keep the lifting capacity as high as OEM. I think I can make a fixture to hold things in line and not planning on changing frequently. I do have a large concrete lab which I have all my 3pt accessories on dollies.
speaking from personal experience the 3rd time I switched out the loader bucket I'd had enough; I'd think it wouldn't be terribly difficult to buy a pair of forks that attach to a bucket and modify them to have sockets on the back for pins if you can't find anything else, assuming they would end up being a width that works for your use. If they aren't you'd need to make a frame for them which increases the difficulty and of course would add weight. If it does work out remember to add a cross bar of some sort between the forks to reinforce the ends of the arms.
Good luck!
If you can find them... The Kubota B1658 Quick Coupler is supposed to fit the LA364. From there, you can use the Kubota B1659 pallet fork frame and K9048 pallet forks.
Since the Quick Coupler works with pin-on attachments like the stock bucket, you might not need it with the B1659 and you can just pin it to the loader. Just an option...
