Hi Guys, Well I finally got a day of no rain off and installed the quick attach; I was correct, the overall width was good but the inside dimension was wide on the arms. A good 3/8 to 1/2 inch narrower between the arm plates or add 3/8 to the inner arm plate overall width to narrow the mount slots. With my loader being 'tweaked' a taste and the bucket flanges a total mess I did come reasonably close. I will get a few thick spacers or heavy washers and shim it up.    |

| I did center drill, cross drill and tap the pins they sent for grease, seemed a better idea than trying to drill the arm eyes. |

| Nice job done! This winter I did a job on an AC 6140 with a AC 450 loader. I put forks on with its own mount. |

| I am adding a QT bracket to the back of the OE bucket then ordering pallet forks and a bale spear head, I am hoping to see if I can construct a small tree shear to hook up on it so I can 'snip' thorny locust scrub. |
