That's a nice looking setup you have there! If it were me, I'd be afraid to use it, it looks so good! Bet you have a lot of fun with that.

Approximately how much weight did all that plus plumbing add to your bucket?
Did the dealer install a new valve for the grapple attachment? New control? Diverter? What method?
Thanks,

Thanks,
According to ATI specs, the grapple is 137 lbs and the toothbar is 47 lbs. Both are bolted on so they can be removed (Grapple - 4 bolts each side, Toothbar - 1 bolt each side). Grapple has seperate lever control tapped into and mounted beside the hydraulic control for the bucket. Hoses are quick disconnect.

That sounds like a great set-up.
You should be very happy with it. I don't have the grapple yet (in transit as we speak) but I've had the toothbar for quite a while and it's made a huge difference in digging and moving/popping brush and small trees.

Very nice looking setup. I also believe that if you look closer at your setup you can most likely pull the pins holding the cylinder and the lift arms and quickly pull them leaving the support tube on the bucket. I do it whenever I'm working in the dirt, it's quick and easy 5 minutes tops.
