Horst Welding or Horst Loader Attachments (HLA) builds what you want. I bought one from them 3 or 4 years ago though my loader was a 7410. I wasn't happy with the fit on the 7410... and right on this plate it states that it's for a 7310. I don't know if the geometry is the same or not. This one was somewhere between 6 and 700 at the time. Probably a grand or so now.
What you NEED to be AWARE of is that while these adapters will pin onto your loader and convert it to a universal skid steer attachment system, IT DOES NOT MATCH SKID STEER LOADER ARM GEOMETRY properly so you will probably find that you need a blocking kit on your bucket or forks to get the correct rollback angle. That was the main problem I had.
I already had various skid steer attachments for my skid steer so I wasn't adding a blocking kit to those attachments... thus I cut the HLA adapter to pieces and rebuilt it with the correct geometry for my 7410 loader.
Just be aware of that fact if you order one from them.
I had considerable discussions with them on the subject at the time and their sugestion was that I send it back to them if I wasn't happy with the product...
I figured it was easier and less risky to hack it apart and make it fit correctly than it was to risk playing the 'freight game' with them and then have to buy materials and build one anyway. Through some arguement with my dealer I ended up getting an adjustment on the price, but I don't believe he did...

It is well made otherwise and I'm happy with it in that respect, but rather sour on the company. Mabey they changed their design by now so that it doesn't need a blocking kit...
Bolt on forks will destroy that bucket and not lift very much. Leave them alone.
