    Help! SSQA to a JDQA Grapple?

    FOLLOW UP Yip, Yip, Yip, Yahoo! I'm in business. The adapter took a meeting with Mr. Cutting torch to open the bottom holes enough to fit, but it's on and working. Put to immediate use clearing brush piles from recent severe storms in the area. I'll get some photos later to post up. Thanks for...

    Help! SSQA to a JDQA Grapple?

    Talked to EA this morning to see if there were any issues using the adapter with their grapple. Got a green light there. Next call was to order the adapter. Will be here is a week. I'll report on how it works when I get it. My gratitude to everyone that chimed in to help and especially for the...

    Commercial rotary vs flail help!

    9 acres per hour? I'd have to see that. What would your ground speed have to be? I don't think Mario Andretti could mow that fast.

    Tack welding to secure it is probably a good idea. A nice middle ground between fully welded and pinned on. It keeps the options open. Thanks for that thought. I appreciate everyone taking the time to be helpful.

    Help! SSQA to a JDQA Grapple?

    Hmmm. It makes sense there could be some extra slop in the connections. I don't understand how cutting off the JD parts will help the value of it. If the adapter works for this application, it allows both set ups. Seems like a win to me. Regarding weight, the adapter only adds 90 lbs. Seems...

    Help! SSQA to a JDQA Grapple?

    Peter 315, that looks like the ticket! Thanks you so much. Yander, taking it back would cost me a tank of diesel and about 5 hours round trip. There isn't another available that I can find. This one is half the price of a new one and immediately available. If I end up another $315 into it, I...

    Help! SSQA to a JDQA Grapple?

    After researching grapples, I decided to pull the trigger on a third function for the FEL on my Kubota Grand L 4740. Had the dealer install the kit and I should be ready to go. After looking at a number of companies and reading people's opinions, the Wicked 55 was my choice. Called to talk about...
