Combination frame for 430 Loader

rockyridgefarm · May 6, 2003

jdparts specifies a combination frame for the 430/460 loader. It seems to work with pallet forks and a bale spear. Has anyone seen it? Is is a good idea? Does anyone make attachments for these loaders, or is Deere the only option?

I have that frame & pallet forks. I used it on my old 4400/430 & now on my 4710/460. It is a very handy attachment. I use it to unload lumber, move brush, move pipe & posts. I have had mine 3 years & paid about $1,000 at the time.

Thanks, Chey, Hows the 4710 getting along?

is there a big differance with this now that you've upgraded tractors?

RRFarm,
I have the same frame with forks for my 4200. It is very handy, and attaches to or detaches from the FEL in place of the bucket in less than a minute. I use it for log moving and loading/unloading pallets from my truck or from a shippers truck. I wouldn't be without it.
