Grapple recommendations

[m7040]

Wonder where to get a grapple for my loader on M7040. Seen a few thum types but they look light duty the 72 inch FEL bucket Any recommendations??

Put two thumb type grapples on the 72 inch bucket. Check out 3RRL's set up. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/88070-ebay-grapple-2.html#post983850

Do you know where 3RRL got those?

Pretty sure it was Ebay.

3RRL is very active on TBN. PM him and I'm sure he'll get back to you with details of how he bought, installed and plumbed them.

I believe those are Andy Tatro grapples, like mine. He sells on Ebay as every now and then. I believe his Ebay ID is HTatro.

Just ran across this thread.
Those are Andy Tatro grapples. He will build them for you custom if you like. There are several eBay ones that are similar, but I chose him as he was recommended by MadReferee. Check that thread out posted by IslandTractor, I think his email is in there. If not, PM me.

m7040, have you thought about one of these grapples?

Skid Steer loader Root Grapple Heavy Duty

Good prices and seem to be well built.

I've got a Bolt-on Virnig Grapple and it's worked out ok for me. Pic of stacking tree length Tamarack Poles attached. Have removed/carried quite a few large boulders, brush, etc.

I bought mine from borgford, built very heavy. No way I could tear it up with my tractor.
