quick connect for 50a backhoe with MF300 loader Titan ki

jbshocks · Oct 21, 2021

I finally got my 50a back up and running and now I would like forks on it. I am considering forks that connect to the bucket but would be even cooler is to go to a quick attach. I was looking at the titan quick attach kit and it is rated at 3500 pounds, is this to weak? it looks like from tractor data that lift capacity is 4500. What have others done with quick connect?

I have a skid steer quick attach (SSQA) on my farmhand loader attached to my MF 180. Best thing I have ever done and I will not have another loader without some sort of quick attach solution (either already on it or I spend the coin and convert it). That weight limit sounds like the SSQA weight limit. I would go after converting it to the Euro/Global style quick attach which should give you your full weight limit. Most of those I see go to 5k. It will be harder to find attachments used but they are out there new (and occasionally used). If you look at the worksaver website they offer many solutions in the euro department. Biggest advantages to having some sort of quick attach system is you get the work tool out of your way when not using it and you gain visibility when you switch to forks vs just putting them on a bucket. I notice I rarely use the bucket now. The forks are pretty much what I end up using. Forks on the bucket in my mind are just a bad solution. Your weight is way far forward of where you want it, you can't hardly see anything up there and they are hard to reposition width wise.
