Hydraulic auger recommendations for my FEL

[In.the.Piñons]

Looking forward to hearing your review.... I need a PHD and this looks mighty tempting.

I'll report back when I get it up and running. But it probably won't be for 2-4 weeks as I'm still waiting on my WR Long remotes / 3rd function kit. They are having to make it up custom for me and it's already been about a month and it's yet to ship.

Waiting is killing me! I ordered a MTL grapple at the same time I ordered the WR kit. Now the grapple is sitting in my barn, collecting dust until I get my 3rd function.

I bought a MTL grapple and I am controlling it off one of my rear remotes... seems to work great. Although hoses cost what I thought was a small fortune.

My rear remote controls are positioned such that they are not readily accessible when I'm using the loader joystick.

The setup I'm getting from WR Long will still use one of their rear remotes (the kit I'm buying adds four to the existing two) to operate the grapple, but it's activated by a button on a replacement joystick. I went in this direction because they told me that their true 3rd function kit does not support continuous flow. While that doesn't matter for a grapple, it does matter for an auger. But still, their remotes don't flow at the same GPM as my tractors existing rear remotes (18 vs 12gpm), so I will still have to plug into a factory rear remote to operate/power the auger.

Ahh, my rear remote controls are very handy and easy to use/access.
