The WICKED Root & Debris GRAPPLE!!!!!!!

Haha. Yes, it's a challenge to make it look tough with those tires, but they definitely give it some traction!
The ones on our L6060 are a little more MANLY!

No I meant it, it looks good like that. I always liked ag tires better on most tractors. Those b series look like they'd go just about anywhere. That L6060 is by far one of the best looking kubotas. Someday I'll have one just like it.

Nice! I'm even more interested in how you got the tractor out of that mess.

Looks like you were doing okay up to that point

Well I tried to get my truck close but that turned out to be a bad idea...

Ended up dropping the disks, lifting the front end enough with the loader to get some fence posts under the front tires, dug out enough slop from the rears to get 2x4 scrap under the front portion and repeated that three times before I gained enough inches to start crawling out.

I had found another one about 10 minutes prior that buried a front tire but lifting up on the disks and diff lock got me out of that one.

I'm impressed. Was thinking that one might have been a good application for the EA Wicked "Unstuck Stick". Travis - let me know when you need a prototype tested. Lightweight and strong will be key... :thumbsup:

The real action starts at about the one minute mark. And he had to drop his discs too. Now back to grapples...

AHHH. Looks like a fairly sticky situation.

Heck yeah! Unstuck stick with laser cut holes for weigh reduction and extra gripping ability!!

Finally had someone else (my son) to be the operator so I had a chance to grab some action shots.

Clearing out some small trees from an old fence line and cutting anything firewood worthy out for my uncles to come get.

It looks like he's getting the hang of it!
Thanks for showing it off.

Hmmm, for the right price I would buy. Wouldn't need to be more complicated than an I-beam with a t-slot type cut that log chain could be sinched up into.

I volunteer to do some product testing
