Template:Level Ford Knocks is the third level in Donkey Kong Land III. Located in the south of Cape Codswallop, it takes place on a series of boardwalks overhanging a river. The stilts supporting the docks are much higher than in Red Wharf, so if the Kongs fall into the shallow river, they may not always be able to get back on the wharf. Actually, most bonuses, including K-O-N-G Letters and the first Bonus Barrel, are found in the upper half of the level, thus Dixie and Kiddy had better stay on the boardwalks. Sneeks and Kobbles are seen again, but "Ford Knocks" also introduces new enemies such as Buzzes, Knik-Knaks and Booty Birds. The Koin can be found at the end of the level, in a small hollow.

In the "Time Attack" mode, unlocked after beating Baron K. Roolenstein in the Lost World, "Ford Knocks" appears again to represent "Stilt" levels. It must be completed in less than 48 seconds; the Kongs must not fall into the water, as doing so would slow them down considerably.
