This is how they do it in Leduc, Alberta.

Dude, get yourself a pair of pallet forks. I have a jd1025r which is comparable to your subcompact. I haven't used the bucket save for two times since I got them. I move stuff, lift stuff and dig rocks out of the ground with them. Made my tractor 100% more useful around my land. Trust me they're worth it. You wouldn't have to put stuff in the bucket to level the pin out either.

First tractor I've seen used! I've moved one with a snowmobile and use a UTV often. Gotta do what you gotta do.

I do not think i would move a pin like that. It seems to me it is going the gouge the bottom of cabinet. I would rather carry them with another person than take a chance of doing some damage. I guess i would rather hurt my back than my pin.

Move pin and cut the lawn/weeds at the same time. Multi tasking.

I've did that before but with a Ford tractor. I was lucky that my bucket was big enough that the whole pin fit inside it. Made moving a RFM easy from the basement to the driveway.

Pretty lazy way to risk effing up your stuff.

Right back at ya brother! Pallet fork attachment is the way to go.

I also had a pair of forks that attached to the bucket like a previous poster, and they worked great also, plus you can use the tractor to unload any thing that is shipped to you with tail gate delivery only. I just pull up to the truck and use the tractor like a fork lift.

I'll also recommend you get yourself a set of forks. EXTREMELY useful in a variety of situations. Our bucket sees a fraction of the use the forks get.

I use my grapple bucket 90% of the time, but forks will be the next thing I buy (saving up for a Met first though)

#12 8 years ago

Adding mine.

All went well.
I still wouldn't do it with my game

Yeah, you need some forks bad. Look for old fork lifts and someone can fab them for you; Or, if your rich go to the dealer ; ) I've put whole games with legs on right in my bucket, but I have a full size backhoe. No pics sorry. Lol
