Also, this thread begins with the first Wicked Grapple on the welding table in our factory!
It seems like it was just yesterday.

Very interesting and impressive. High quality without the massive overhead of a Fortune 500 company. Explains why you guys are so competitive pricewise.

Thanks!
Coincidentally, there was a Wicked Grapple shown in the paint booth during the video.

Hey, this thread has a lot of movement so I have a quick question regarding my third function install so I can use my GRAPPLE.

These are the instructions

View attachment 434742

After my install, I will make a better set of instruction (or notes) and post them to alleviate any confusion for the next guy.

It states to take the top banjo bolt out and cut the tube. Then what? Leave the cut tube there? Open for crap to get in there? Or remove the other end of the tube ? ( which is what I did) but not I assume Id need a plug for that end. If I out the Bango back in minus the tube, it will still have a hole.

I have to post a few photos and unfortunately one photo per post is all my phone always.

So the question is: after removing the tube (the top part gets a new fitting and hose to the new unit, but what happens to the other end? Does it just stay open?

Ken, you want to ask these question on the Kubota forum or the hydraulics forum. For example: do you have a diverter valve or a double acting solenoid? The difference matters where you install. If you have a double-acting solenoid, you want to tap into the loader valve's power beyond port, or the port running between the loader valve and the rear hydraulics and insert your valve that will operate the loader's third function.

If you're cutting hard lines, take the line off first if you can so that shavings cannot be introduced into your hydraulic system.

I totally agree!!! Lol.... But this thread moves so fast I knew I'd get a response lickidy split !!!! And sure enough the private messages poured in. She's all together now.... My only debate is trying to now delete those questions.... Or having them moved over there.... This thing is to cool.... Moved a couple small rocks.... 75 lbs or so... Although small, it made it easier to do.... Grabbed a couple small trees.... Just FRICKIN cool....
