So, looking at projects for spring, summer and beyond,I think I need a grapple for the 400cx loader on the JD 4520. I have a 4in1 bucket, but it just does not do tree limbs well. Also I want to be able to lose some of the dirt I built up when making the debris piles last fall. Anyway, looked at a "BoDozer grapple" borgford.com and it looks well built. Perhaps too well built for the few times a year I need one. The wife unit sputtered and gave a general error code when I mentioned the price ($3600). I see units for skidsteers on ebay for $1000-2000. I can fab my own mounts. anybody know any brands/dealers which are better or worse than others? I thought about making the whole thing, but time to design and fab mounts is one thing, designing and fabricating the whole thing is something else.
