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...

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.

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.

Well it's all done.

I wanted to make sure the piece was tight so I used a lot of clamps?? The pictures shows the welding is done and now the paint is drying so hopefully I will get the bucket on tommorrow.

I went to the fab shop and picked up my piece and then I picked up some fittings needed to finish the hyd. hookup. I wanted to add 45 degree street elbows to the valve outlet to help with the angle of the hoses, and when I went to loosen the male coupler from the sae #8 o-ring to 1/4" male pipe...

While I am waiting on the parts for the hoses I thought I would reinforce the bucket. I will go to the fab shop later today and see if I can get a piece bent to reinforce the top three sides of the bucket so I can weld hooks on top.

The valve stand is modified and reinstalled. I have the parts ordered to make the hoses, they should be in today.

Well the loader came in and I picked it up today. I have the valve plate cut free from the stand and I am in the process of fabricating a new mount to connect it to the loader mount.

Well I have been doing some research and this is what I found out. My valve would work (they even have a hyd adapter that bolts over the outlet ports and puts them inline above each other) but two dealers have tried to find a LA211 with no valve and they told me they could not find any LA211...

I have a couple of pictures that may help with my try to decribe the valve. Thanks

Hi, I just found this site and I like it! I have a question about loaders. I have a 2004 BX2230 with a 60" front blade, I am using the Kubota BX2015A 4 way hyd. valve, it has the Hyd. couplers that are side by side and not inline over each other. Can I use this valve with a LA211 loader? Are the...
