My son-in-law wanted to put a set of forklift tongs on his Koyker loader. I'm pretty sure he was thinking about mounting them to the bucket. I told him I thought he'd soon have the bucket bent, plus more bulk in the way. At a nearby salvage yard there are some old forklifts. He bought the tongs and mounting plate they hook on from one unit. He took off the bucket and didn't have to do much (weld on brackets to the back of the mounting plate) and he has a handy forklift attachment. A nice plus is you can space the tongs as needed.
