My 73" Single Lid Wicked Grapple arrived yesterday. I put pallet forks on my LS XR4046HC and unloaded from the back of the SE Freight Lines truck. Had SE loaded the grapple pallet 180 degrees turned, I could have just dropped the pallet forks and hooked onto the grapple SSQA and picked up grapple and pallet. No problem, trick was at my place for less than 10 minutes. I like SE FL as I get same driver for every delivery. He knows where to go so, little time is wasted.

Installed my QD's and had an operating grapple in about 15 minutes. Ready to get busy this morning.

Let the fun begin!

Got started this morning. First lift was a dead tree. Didn't have to push it over, it was already down.

Decided to cut this one up for fire pit at the house. Ran down my supply of fire pit wood, thinking winter was over. It's been in the 40's last few mornings.

Those head to head pics are great! The big one may have more lift height, but the small one has a bigger mouth!!

This thread sputtered out fairly quick... Kinda disappointing after just reading the whole original Wicked CUT thread. I remember reading this one back when it started. I’m waiting for my Wicked Utility grapple to ship and I was excited to find this thread again on the Utility. Just ended too quickly. Guess that shows how few people have utility tractors on the forum. Maybe this will revive this thread a little?.... Anyone want to brag on their Utility grapple?

I did on the most recent threads. I do upgrade my LS XR 4046HC to a new LS XR4155HC last fall. I bought the Utility size Grapple for the 42”+ opening.

No regrets, after just over two years of use.

Congrats and thanks for the business, Country1!! :cool2:

My, how two years flew by us!!
This torture test should kick the tires and relight the fires. :laughing:
Not sure why I didn't share it before.

This single lid Wicked 73 was his easy button. Jeremy in Wisconsin has it on a Wacker WL32 compact wheel loader.

"Finishing up a job and couldn't fit the stump grinder in the trailer with the loader because of all the stump chips. Didn't want to spend another hour to come back and get it."

We've made and sold our Wicked Grapple for utility tractors for several years, but haven't really made a good video showing it in action.

Earlier this week, Contractors were coming to build a fence around the perimeter of this lot the next day and said Ted would NEVER have it cleared in time. Rather than bringing in a dozer, he turned to our Kubota M6-141 and the biggest, baddest Wicked Grapple ever made!

The pecan tree is HUUUUGE!
