This is a spin off of my original post "Need help deciding on a grapple". I purchased almost all my parts list from the Surplus Center, the only thing I didn't purchase from SC was the QDs... I found a set of 6 QDs on ebay cheaper than 4 sets on SC website. I decided to put QDs at the FEL disconnect and at the torque tube both rigid mounted. I'm glad I put the QDs at the FEL disconnect because it wasn't easy routing the 1/2" lines under the cab. I took MtnviewRanch's (Brian) advice and tapped my brackets with 1/2 NPT tap to thread my JIC to NPT adapters into so I had a nice tight secure fit at the QDs. All in all the project was fairly simple and I really appreciate everyone suggestions from my previous thread. The entire project came in at 245.00. Here's a few install pics:

EDIT:
Sorry for the quality of some of the pictures, I took them on my iphone. Also, I uploaded the pics from my new laptop and when I viewed the pics on the laptop they were already rotated to the upright position but when I loaded them to TBN some of them didnt keep the correct rotational layout... not sure what the heck happened with that. Im not real familiar with the software on my new laptop yet. Hopefully I'll get it figured out for future uploading!
