Dimensions for Quick-Attach equipment?

[Lizrad]

Hi all, I'm a newbie, so please forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong place.
What I am looking for is the "Universal" measurements for skid steer attachments. I'm in the process of building a loader for my Ford 3000 tractor, and would like to be able to use skid steer attachments on it. Therefore, I want to build the device that goes on the loader arms that will work. I've looked high and low, and have not been able to find anything besides a few names of these types of systems:
Bob-Tach
Quik Tach
I have found that it is known as an SAE J2513 Standard.
Anyone out there with the dimensions or a link to a site with them?
Worst case I'll have to go find one somewhere and measure it..
Thank you in advance! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Lizrad,
Wwelcome to TBN

I did a Yahoo search and came up with a fair number of links.

There were at least 3 vendors selling the docs you want I'd have posted a link but it was so long I think it would take a full page.

Try Yahoo, you'll get what you want.

Good luck

Building your own loader!

Now that is a project I would like to follow...please post pics of your progress and results.

Apparently it is a big undocumented secret as I found no
definitive specifications either when I had searched. So
I took the measurements from my tractor quick-tach and
accompanying loader bucket. You can find them in this
thread: Quick Attach Pallet Forks

Would think that you could go by most any large tool rental yard that rents Bob-Cats and take all the measurement that you might need. If you post them here you'll be the first to share that information as I have not seen it posted here either.

Maybe the info in this site will help. Look at "Will it fit my machine?"

My earlier post probably wasn't clear. The
reverse-engineered SAE J2513 adapter
geometry can be found here: Quick Tach

Good information there guys.....

Would anybody know where I might find some specs on the dimension for the quick attach on the Bobcat mini track loaders - the MT52 and MT55? I have been tossing around the idea of making a quick attach for my BX loader and the attachments available for the MT series are about the right size to be compatible with the BX. I can't seem to dig up any info on the dimensions though....
