Hi, looking for some ideas/info on how to go about getting my tractor to pick up my existing implements, we still have the telehandler so changing brackets on them isnt an option.
The tractor has chilton
the telehandler has qfit as do the implements

Can you convert them to fit ?
Any clever ideas or work arounds?
Can get an adapter plate for £895
New headstock is around 1400

Any cunning ideas out there. It doesnt need to do loads of work.

Thanks in advance

A half decent fabricator will knock you an adaptor plate up for half that.
if you never intend picking chilton attachments up again it's even easier as you will weld direct on to your headstock

Thanks for that, I was thinking something similar myself.
Would the attachments be too heavy for a tractor?
Only fairly light use.
