cascade foothills,western wash.
found a set of 36" forks,for a reasonable price, so I had to build a frame to attach them to the 200cx. before I paint it, is there anything I should add to the frame, that I haven't thought of ? 100_0086 (1424 x 1066).jpg

Looks great!!, The hooks on the the frame are a great idea. I wish I had put some on mine before I painted them.

You did a really good job building that set of forks. The hook idea is thinking outside the box... I mean forks.:)

B63,

Really nice, you're gonna love them. I'd think hard about making some mounting points for a 3ph. You'd probably never regret it.

You might want some way to hold each fork from sliding side to side - make them adjustable, not loose. That'd be risky with a load on and on a side-slope. I'm not sure what you're going to be using them for (you'll find many tasks) but I know I move mine fairly often and like it that they're locked in.
