I made a set of light weight brush forks for the new loader. I did not want them to heavy so I made them out of 2"X2"X1/8" wall tubing. They attach with two cat0 5/8" pins, but I am making tabs to bolt to the bucket to keep them from pivoting out of the bucket.

I used them to turn over the compost pile and they seem to work ok but I want to keep them from floping out of the bucket so I am making tabs for that. Here are some pictures of them in use.

chiefbuzzbee, I hooked one fork on a tree root when I was turning the compost pile and the loader (using about 2/3 throttle) would not lift the bucket so I think they will lift as much as the loader can handle. The loader capacity is around 650 lbs at the pins, 500lbs. at 19.7" ahead of the bucket pins.
