I've two tractors with buckets, two sets of clamp-on-pallet-forks w/ stabilizer bar, and 2 Piranha Tooth Bars.
I WAS a little concerned about how the piranha's would coexist with the forks. I exchanged emails with Harry and he is convinced that taking off a 72 " Piranha is easy, so no problem don't worry. But it's a lot easier leaving it on.
Happily they work together well.
I think I may have to grind off a couple of teeth if I want to be lifting heavy loads but I was pleased to be able to just slide the clamps over the piranha, clamp them down, go move a pile of brush, come back and unhook them. Sort of a poor man's QA grapple.
I'm still trying to figure out how to convince SWMBO I need to spend about $3,000 for an EA grapple and a QA adapter, but for now my $400 solution works. And I'll still need the piranha and forks when I get a full blown wicked grapple.
