Message: <blockquote data-quote="mrbb" data-source="post: 142020" data-attributes="member: 13825">OK Old post, but from MY experience with quick attach from brand to brand machine, to implement brand , there are some times, different spec'sI have had implements that the distance from top to bottom on quick attach was an inch or more longer than it is on other implements, causing the implement to want to slip off the machines quick attach I have also found the quick attach on different brands and models to also be longer or shorter which again then makes some attachments not fit tight or at all at times I bought a cheaper brand name stiff arm backhoe attachment, and I ended up welding on a 1/2 thick piece of metal under the top tabs, to get it to work on my quick attach, other  wise it would pull off quick attach when any real pressure was added to it!! adding that 1/2 inch, snugged things up nicely and implement has never has a issue since! and was also a cheap fix to the issue!on another note I have also found that from brand to brand/model to model, there can also be a difference in width of the quick attach  on machines, and also, o the backing plate of implements MY NH skid steer fits on my one set of forks, but my neighbors Bobcat 753 is too wide to get into the implements backing plate, the bob cats quick attach is about 3 or 4 inches wider than the set up on my NH  and both machines are all OEM, it was just different specs the brand used when making there(gather to not copy patents or such)  SO< this is why I always measure implements backing plates  before I buy them!  both top to bottom and side to side, to make sure they will work on the machine I want to use them on!</blockquote>
