Grapple for fork frame on tractor loader

[Shaneard]

I am thinking of building a grapple on top of my fork frame for moving brush. I can easily add the third function, I have 2 remotes and one isn't being used. I am looking for home built ones if you've done it yourself or ideas/do's/don'ts. Thanks in advance!

I bought one of these:

Does it come off other than the pins or is the bracket permanent?

I want mine to be able to come off because I still need to be able to use just the forks and frame.

You pull the pins to remove it but for most fork work, I leave it in the up position and it is mostly out of the way.

Similar to this?

This is what I have to work with.





I want to be able to remove it out of the way when I don’t need it. Shouldn’t be to hard to do..........

Looks pretty straight forward. Lots on the Tube, view some, use the features that appeal to you. God luck and keep us posted.

Some just slide on on the forks:

You can get a lot if ideas from looking at an image search: adjustable grapple for pallet fork frame - Image Search
