Got this land clearing problem. Need help clearing brush and cut logs (without leaving the tractor seat). Tractor JD 950 4wd with Woods 2012 loader with 5 ft bucket. Bucket has a brush bar mounted at lower front edge with six 24-inch tines at 1 ft spacing. Great for scooping up stacked piles of brush or moderate piles of 6-10 inch logs.. Bad for moving over rough ground for disposal. (The load spills off the bucket/brush forks.) What I need is some kind of (grapple-style) hydraulic overhead rack or thumb to hold the load down Anybody got any suggestions ?

There's quite a few add on kits out there for buckets to add a grapple lid or thumb. Wouldn't be exceptionally hard to fabricobble but would probably take some time.

Whatever you get, be apprised you'll need a 3rd function on the loader to operate it.
