Hooks on FEL Bucket

Can we 'can' the political BS and get back to the issue of "hooks"....

Probably a bunch of people with unexamined and unacknowledged privilege who think they earned 100% of their middle class 'success' while the actual rich were getting richer and richer taking more money off their backs then all the welfare recipients in the whole country combined times ten?

Im all for fairness but the big problems there are not at the bottom. The average household loses track of more money out of their personal finances (like, i have no idea where that money went and id have to print out a bunch of statements and look at it for 2 hours to figure it out) than the government takes off them to create social safety nets.

Or in tractor terms, you might say that people without enough land to qualify for any agricultural tax exemptions pay a large property tax burden (to schools who give lunch, for example) while those who can afford enough land for an ag exemption (the people who usually own tractors) pay next to nothing for their land OR the programs those property taxes fund and usually dont have to prove a damn thing about their actual 'production' to enjoy the privilege of those exemptions. Hmm..

Hahahaha, there we go!

But getting back to HOOKS...I opted to bolt-on mine as opposed to welding them on, for 2 reasons:
A) By having a backing plate as opposed to a fairly thin weld bead running along the hook edges, I think it distributes weight better where the hook mounts onto the bucket.
B) I opted to have clevis mounts serve as the backing plate, doubling my attachment points.

Received my combo bolt-on hooks from Ken's Bolt On Hooks yesterday evening and installed them this morning. I followed the included instructions and watched Ken's video on how to install. I was hesitant at first on trying to drill the holes in the bucket but the whole process went very smoothly. Am really impressed with the quality of these hooks.

Thanks @Rodidi!
