Forklift trailer hitch receiver
Bob Smith:
When I bought my tractor a couple years ago, I also bought a pallet fork attachment. This past week I bought a hitch receiver for the pallet forks to make moving pull trailers a bit easier. Should make getting the travel trailer in the garage much easier.

Interesting concept, I’ve got two options in mind. First blowtorch a hole in the end of a single fork which is what I’ve done menu times. Or the other is a buy a quick attach plate and add a hitch receiver to the front of it.

Our shop lift has a hole in the fork, at the cabinet shop I built a mount for one fork using the existing hole as attachment.
I’ll see if I can get a photo, I currently don’t have one

Because of the 2,200 lb weight rating of the forks and the weight on my travel trailer hitch I needed both forks in the game. The pallet fork attachment is not nearly as heavy duty as the fork lifts I have been around.

I thought about buying a plate and having a receiver attached to it but the welder/fab guy thought he could build something that fit the forks I have and work fine. He wasn’t interested in putting a mounting hole in these forks either.
