I try not "working out" for anyone but friends, she is old and tired (kinda like me lol) and I try not to push it to hard. I mainly use it for moving things around home and loading logs for my firewood processor with the forks, move a little dirt around home and plow snow for myself and a couple neighbors, and I go in the woods to "skid" wood in the winter. My world would shut down if she died, your 440 will be the same for you I'm sure. What part of the country are you in? The reason I ask is in the mid west there is a place called All States ag parts. They are a salvage yard for ag equipment but also have a good stock of skid steer parts, they might have something for a quicktach for you. They have locations in several states and can usualy find about anything, though they might not always be the cheapest I think they are fair. If you do have to build or modify another machines quicktach, it may take a bit of work and ingenuity but if you can trust your fab skills (remember people could be around it if something would break, safety first)it is well worth the effort. I made both of my buckets (a smooth dirt bucket and a 8 foot wide snow bucket), my forks, and modified my quicktach and am very satisfied with the results. The next project for me is a 7'snow plow blade mounted to a quickach plate to speed up plowing long roads/driveways.</p></blockquote><p></p>
