crawler forks??
Does any one know where to get or what forks will fit on a john deere 90 loader (420c)? Thanks
Re: crawler forks??
Hello,
I do not have a lead on original forks. But MTL out of GA has some interesting / affordable forks. This you tube post shows a guy putting a large set in a 450C.

Re: crawler forks??
Very nice thanks! I should do what he did and put a quick tach plate on my crawler but then I would need to convert my bucket too.
Re: crawler forks??
One of my 440ICDs that came with a 831 loader has a pair of forks on it instead of a bucket.

But, many electrons were terribly bothered.

Re: crawler forks??
Only the factory attachment is a direct fit, and scarce as hens teeth. Conversion to skid steer quick tach might be best option.

Re: crawler forks??
ok Thanks I kinda wondered about that!
Re: crawler forks??
Found these on EBay. Not sure they are original, but seller states the forks came off a 420C. They are inexpensive, buy-it-now price. Hope they work for you and you are near Harrison, Tennessee.
Take care,

Re: crawler forks??
Yep, those are the ones. Thanks for posting the link Jim
Re: crawler forks??
Thanks that is exactly what I need and very reasonable even if they are not pretty! I just sent the guy a message!
Re: crawler forks??
Its too bad I am 7 hrs away and he said if he cant sell them in the next 4 weeks they will be going to the dumpster... hope someone can get them I dont have time to drive that far.....
Re: crawler forks??
U-ship? Or some regional hauler?
Sounds like a great fit, to bad it is a drive!
Re: crawler forks??
They are exactly what i want! If any of you know of some one that would haul them let me know! The guy cannot load them do who ever picks them up would have to take care of loading....
Re: crawler forks??
Do you have a retired, or out of work, relative or friend that needs a road trip you can pay the expenses of? A single axle tilt trailer and com-a-long to drag them on the trailer (provided they are where a trailer can back up to them) would haul those. 7 hours one way, plus loading, could well be an overnight trip. I expect finding a commercial hauler to load and haul to you would be expensive.
Re: crawler forks??
No I dont, Oh well you cant get all the deals in life!
