hydraulic couple clamping tool (inspired by recent Messick's video on YT)

The Irwin clamp set up works well. The grapple WAS the most unpredictable implement to hook up...but no longer.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I dread hooking up my bush hog sometimes. It might make me more likely to swap out for the bucket if I knew it would be easier.

I made a couple of these up from some cheap parts on Amazon. Plug them into the loader when I remove it and allows me to bleed off pressure increase from temperature changes and easily reconnect them
