I like these forks, as they are strong and mostly well built. I've used them with my tractor to move quite a bit around my shop... all of it under 1000 pounds. They've not given me any issues. However, the mechinism that is used to clamp them to the forks could use some revision! It's difficult to tighten the clamps down, as the handles will hit into each other when rotated. This could have been easily fixed by making one of the bolts slightly longer than the other. then they would clamp down at different heights. Also, since they are so short it is best to have a \"cheater bar\" handy. I used a 9\" piece of pipe to add a little extra torque to the bolts. Other than that, these are a great addition to any tractor!
