i need a set of pallet forks for our rc100. what do you guys think about this set:

they are only the state over so we might just go pick them up if it ends up being cheaper to drive there, ill have to figure that out.

i like the 4K rating on them, should give be enough to lift almost any pallet of srw or pavers. they seem to be built well.

I paid $700 for a similar setup from Bobcat and I think the rating was about the same. I have overloaded them and not had an issue. If you can get them for slightly more than the current bid price of $330 you are getting a steal in my opinion. I don't know what I would do without my forks.

Yes, that is a very good buy. I am a big fan of the John Deere forks, very strong, have steps, and the brick rack is easy to see through when operating.

I cut the steps off mine, they get in the way when trying to put a pallet in the back of a pickup truck.

don't forget to add that shipping rate to your price 330 + 125 is 455 already

I have a set of Bradco forks. They seem to be built well. I used them to pop rocks and broke up a concrete slab with them. You can even get your own logo put on them.
