How to build a Skid Steer to 3pt adapter?

[Mosey]

Has anyone made a Skid Steer to 3pt adapter similar to this: Switch-Hitch from Kasco? Even something simpler would do just fine.

Danny,
Do you want to use skid steer attachments on a 3pt hitch
or
3pt hitch attachments on a skid steer?

 

[Mosey]

Sorry about being unclear! I want to use 3pt hitch attachments on a skid steer type hookup. I'm getting a FEL with a skid steer quick attach bucket. So, I want to be able to take the bucket off and hook up things like a 3pt boom pole, 3pt pallet mover, etc. For example, see Boom Pole Lifts Up To 16 Feet. I'm trying to avoid having to pay $500 for the adapter.

That sounds handy.

I did a quick search on google.com for skid steer 3pt adapter and found several.

Another option might be a 3pt quick hitch with a skid steer plate welded on it. Don't know how much a skid steer plate costs, but I've seen 3pt quick hitches for under $200.00.

/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gifMossroad you are just too quick. I just replied to Mosey's other post saying basically the same thing. Now eveybody is going to think I stole your idea.

Last one - Like I said You can do anything with a blank bobcat skid steer plate.

cwave, that is exactly what I and Mossroad were thinking. So any details on the costs involved?
