Quick Attach Plate

Wrong side. I'm looking for the machine side to adapt onto an old JD 145 FEL.

This place has them for the machine side. Skid Steer Q/A Adapters for Frontend Attachments

Actually, I was thinking they were identically priced. The one you found ($499.00)has a ~$100.00 adapter plate included. The one I found does not. Either way, once you get one, you'll like it. MY brother got a new JD with their pin-on bucket and forks (it was cheaper that way). I consider them to be a PIA to swap out. He forgot or the pin fell out on one side, the load shifted popping the forks off the right side which ended up twisting the lower left lift arm and broke the end of the curl cylinder rod off.

I went back and looked again at the one I found at Hayspear. I don't see the plate you're talking about and you have to build the mount to fit your tractor. That's the blank back.

Anyway, thanks for the link. I don't want to hijach this thread too much.

Will do. I didn't want to hi-jack your thread. Courtisey thing, you know!

I expect to buy it in late February when I get my tax return. Of course, my wife did just ask what I wanted for Christmas.

Just purchased 2 quick attach plates from ebay seller "rebar monkey". They offer both a 1/4" plate as well as a 5/16" plate. Both models have 3/8" thick cross bars. I purchased 2 of the 5/16" model and was extremely impressed with the speed of delivery as well as the quality of the product. Very heavy duty!!

I plan on making a tree scoop with one of them and pallet forks with the other.

Happy hunting!
