3RRL haven't had a problem yet but haven't use it much. I was going try to get the hoses run up to the fel this weekend ,but my son invited me to go down to his deer lease ,its bow season here in Texas he shot a 10pt last weekend.I told him I haven't shot a bow in 20 years he said thats ok all I would need is a hammer,we are going to put a new roof on his cabin "oh boy "so it will be a couple of weeks before I get back to the tractor.

lol...
Isn't that just like a kid...:)

Nicely done! I would think there would be a market for a commercially made unit such as this....no?...I, for one, like the front and rear feature. Markham are you listening? ;)

Thank you Foggy1111, going to build another one this spring just for moving brush .We use the forks for loading the welder and other things,it may easer just build to another set of forks and just short this one. Some time when I need to use loader ,I move the grapple & forks to the back takes about 10 min. it easer to drag long cedar trees though the woods from the back and you can see were your going.Makes life a little easer my son said I'll do anything on the farm that can be do from the sat of the tractor I'am 67 he 33 he cuts them down and haul them away.
HOPE YOU HAVE MARRY CHRISTMAS

That looks good. I have a question about some of the parts. What are the brackets called that you have the clevis and the grapple pinned to and where do you get them? Or did you make them?

Jeepnford, the brackets I made out of 1/2 x 2 1/2 flat metal.

Jeepnford, I believe you maybe asking about the center link extension I build.I add Pat's quick hitch an to save buying a longer center link or running it way out ,I build a extension clevis.
