    4707

    I agree with Wacky. However, I do use my 4707 and 78 in grapple a fair bit. The key is going slow and tackling projects head on and not at an angle. Chances are that you sprung your loader by lifting heavily on one side. When running my grapple, I run in low range and take my time. Never had...

    I have a Massey Ferguson 4707 with DOC only. It's a full flow DOC, designed to last lifetime of engine and can never plug up. It was a major deciding factor in my purchase. Love the tractor after 2 years. No issues.

    R1 vs. R4 - looking for advice

    I have had R4 and R1 tires. R4 are best in a high scrub application running on concrete alot or where lots of sharp rocks may be present. You will sacrifice ride and traction with them. On R1 tires, you can get bias and radial tires. Radials run a lower pressure, ride and wear great, have...

    Grapple Opinions Again

    To the OP, you dont want that grapple with a 9540...way too light. It has 3/8" steel. You want something with 1/2" steel and dual lids. I have a 78" Tomahawk. Best bang for the buck. Greasable hinges, 1/2"steel, very well built. I paid $1250 in Pa.

    Land Pride SGC0660 vs SGC1060 Grapple
