Check out the Mid-State Attachments, E-Series root rake.
Very long bottom tines! (550+ lbs.)
I just ordered a 60" one,.... $900 plus shipping.
Excellent reviews!

What tractor did you put that on? 550 lbs is pretty strong!

I would recommend Land Pride or Everything Attachment. Both have a full range of grapples. This is a picture of my Kubota M6040 with a Land Pride SGC1560 - rock & root grapple. It's a whole lot heavier than what you want and it has the heavier, shorter tines. It does show how well this implement fits the FEL and quick attach. AND since you are getting a grapple - - I STRONGLY recommend you do something to your OEM grill guard - pic attached. The joy of a new grapple will be lost when a stick, limb or stob goes thru your radiator, grill or battery.

That grill guard is a great call - thank you

I am surprised no one commented on your loader connector :confused:.

It is for sure not SSQA. It is the Kubota proprietary coupler, Here is an old thread about it: https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-buying-pricing/198139-la364-loader-quick-coupler.html

Everything Attachments uses high strength steel and weigh less than some of the other grapples so you can lift a heavier load. I don't know if they can make one for your loader coupler but I would ask them.

Right. That for sure is the pin on coupler and no SSQA attachment is going to work there. Several years ago I had a B3030 and I added a Washburn skid steer adapter from hayspear.com. It worked but it reduced loader lift capacity due to the added weight and the fact that it also placed the load further out from the lift arms.
I believe the B3030 and 2920 are pretty much the same tractor except for a small horsepower difference. And the lift capacity isn't that great to begin with, much less after decreasing it with an SSQA adapter.
