Lloyd, thanks. I will be sure to test it, but it seems about right for a 30,000 lb forklift.

As I'm sure you're aware, it seems a lot to ask from a set of forks. Will you have reinforcement around the mast/teles to limit that? And what kind of stress can they take? (5x the forks?)
This project ought test your math skills pretty well, eh? ;)
