Proper SSQA forks for B2620

[unclejemima]

I've got a B2620 with SSQA and I'd like to get a set of light duty forks.

There is 3 different kubota ones that I can find, but not sure what is the right rating for the B2620.

Because the B2620 can't lift that much anyhow, no sense in getting forks that are rated for to much.

It would be nice to get 48" but I'm not sure if they make the light duty units in 48"?

Advice please

My opinion is that 36" or 42" is more appropriate for your machine, 48" ones are good on full size machines.

Since your in Canada, find some Horst Welding/HLA ones like these: http://hlaattachments.com/item.php?item=257&cat=Forks&sub=Pallet Forks&pltfrm=


The Artillian ones are the lightest available and made in the USA, but shipping might hurt: http://www.artillian.com/SSQA_PalletForkSets.htm

Are the kubota ones junk or overpriced?

I'm sure they are not "junk", but may be overpriced just like buying car/truck accessories from the dealer-this is where they make a lot of money.

I was merely trying to give you some options that's all-I thought that's what you wanted.

I bought forks from Everything Attachments for B2650. I think they weigh around 200-250lbs. The Land Pride forks were around 330 lbs and the pricing was the same for the EA, if not cheaper.

I have a set of Kubota forks for my B2920 and they are good forks. When I bought them, they were competitively priced with other brands.

Really happy with them. With a relatively small lift capacity, I didn't want to lose too much of it to the weight of the forks.
