I built a pallet fork for my 4635 Gehl skidloader this summer, using 2x4, quarter inch wall rectangular tubing, 48 inches long. Rated load for that skidloader is 1350 lbs. The supports for the forks are half inch steel, two flat panels, welded together at the top, with an eight inch spacing at the bottom. The front panel is cut to allow the forks to go through to the back panel, and the forks are welded at both panels. Forks are mounted in a vertical, not flat position. Therefore, a 'homesawed lumber' pallet works ok, but I need to make some pallets with 2x6 risers for the forks to fit into better. A 2x3 rectangular tube might well carry the rated load, and would then allow easier insertion into the pallet. Oh well, maybe next time!-but it works for me now.
