Default Loader quick attach

having a loader has come in handy more times than i can count. The bucket is great for around the house. About 3 years ago i made a snow plow for the kwik way loader, then few months ago i made a set of forks. so now i have 3 attachments for the loader. it started to get real annoying having to try and line up 4 pins from one attachment to another. Since i had such good luck building the quick attach backhoe i decided i was going to build a quick attachment loader frame. One half of the idea came from the universal skid steer quick attach. The other i got from the way John Deere makes their quick attach loader. Takes me 30 seconds to put on or take off the attachment. Here are a few pictures of the forks with my quick attach hooked up...

Next I will be modifying my bucket for the quick attach setup.

the bottom attaches with a 1-1/4'' stud on the attachment, that goes thru the mounting plate with a pin thru it locking it in place.

Understood. 2 pins and the attachment is on. Very cool. I'm soon to start putting my loader on, and this will be on the list of mods. Thanks.

I really want to try this with my loader. I just don't want to modify the original Johnson bucket. If I do go with the QA design it'd be just like yours. How Deere does theirs with the two pin style. Great job!!!

A loader is pretty much a "uni-tasker" without a quick attach, great work!!

i had a grin from ear to ear today wile i hooked up and unhooked the forks a dozen times in just a few minutes. im going to make a video of the setup tomorrow.

a new bucket might be in the works too. the rounded back of the KW bucket doesn't look like its going to work with out having the bucket be a good 6 inches further away from the mount. flat back and flat bottom is the direction ill be looking in.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
