Just wondering what some of you folks paid for your Markham LD grapple. There web site has no prices so anyone know how much they are?

Not sure but as I remember they have several sizes.
I think they are around $900 bucks but the best way is to shoot them an email or give them a quick call. they are very responsive and I'm sure you'll be satisfied.

They're very helpful. Melissa will help you out within hours. They'll custom build one if you'd like too. I asked about a rock bucket with a LD grapple. I was quoted ~1000k.

My LD-48 was about $950 I think delivered (they had a FREE shipping special at the time-not sure if they still do) including the JDQA and NO hoses.

This link is to a thread where I gathered some info. about grapples. There are alot of others out there as well. When I priced my grapple back in October it was $900 plus shipping for the 48 or 60" light duty with one 30" top tine. If you went with two top tines it was about $350 more and about 100 lbs more. The bottom steel for the teeth is about 9" apart. I had them add extra steel between the teeth so the spacing is 4.5" apart. I figured this would help me carry smaller rock etc. The additional spacers added some cost, about $100. I enjoyed working with Markham and have been very pleased with the unit.

What was it about the Markham product that made you purchase from them? I've found a number of manufacturers but have not been able to get some good feedback on how they differ?

Thx

I think the main factor was price. Markham was about half what everyone else was charging. They also make theirs light enough to leave you with some lifting capacity. The ones designed for Skid Steers weigh 800-900 Lbs Markham is about half.

I bought mine a couple of months ago for about $900 plus $100 shipping. Good people to work with. Reasons for buying - price, reasonable weight for my machine, reputed quality, and all the good words from folks who own one on this forum.

Markham has the best price. I think I paid about $1100 dollar delivered with extra tines on the bottom. They are easy to work with and will make minor changes for some additional cost. I know some people asked for two upper arms on the 48", some asked for "teeth" on the lower tines. The teeth are standard now.

Thanks for all the input on the grapple prices. I think I will get one this spring moreover, I have about 7 acres at our church that all has to be cleared and it would be nice to have the grapple.
