Forklift Attachment for Ford 4000 Industrial Backhoe

Aerokirk · Feb 8, 2017

Hello Folks,
I have a 1961 Ford 4000 Industrial Backhoe diesel tractor that I'm hoping to replace the bucket with a forklift implement.
The tractor has a Ford 723/724 loader/backhoe frame and I've located a good set of Class 2 forks but don't have a carriage (frame) to connect them in place of the bucket. Does anyone know of the existence of such an implement for this loader?

Any information would be much appreciated!

Thanks

I have never heard of a quick change for the old loaders, but I bet that if you had a modern one a fab shop would be able to stick it on the front of your loader for you. They should be able to adapt your bucket to it as well.

Woods DuAl universal forks, they have brackets that move for width and there are a series of 1" holes for pins on each bracket.

Thanks for all the help. I found the part number for the forklift attachment from New Holland which is 19-283 but no longer available according to Messicks so I've decided to fab my own fork carriage as I've already acquired a set of class 2 forks.
