Naw, should be able to easily lift 1,100 is with that set up I believe so he's got another 400 or so pounds to play with IMHO.
Are you referring to FEL lift? I was referring to trailer tongue weight. Adding weight of BB will put more pressure on front tractor tires and increase tongue weight.

Re: The WICKED Root & Debris GRAPPLE!!!!!!!

Only issue I would watch is tongue weight. That boxblade is pretty far forward and heavy.
It's taken a few tries to get trailer weighting and balance right, especially since I haul with a half ton, but finally nailed it this week. (Another full thread in trailering forum on the trials and techniques.) Even with the extra tounge weight from the box blade I have balanced enough to keep things in check. I do let it down in front and then back tractor up where rear axle is almost inline with second axle of trailer. Here's a loaded out shot from yesterday.

So back to EA Wicked Grapples - I have to wonder if Ted, Peanut, Travis and the team purposely designed my 60" Single lid to work PERFECTLY with by Mahindra 2538 Bucket and Boxblade? Check this awesome coincidence out...

I usually load the box blade in trailer, and then go back and grab the bucket, two trips and an extra 5-10 mins. But unloading this week I was tired and lazy and thought - why not? Pulled forward on the trailer a bit with lid open, closed it and backed up. Had a bite and put some tension on it. Airborne! Hopped off and was very pleased at the three point attachment and locked grip. Check out the pics for a two implement catch.

All implements in one fell swoop.

Sure is a nice looking setup and a nice well taken care of place you have.

No offense, but can we see more pictures of the M6?

Thanks.

Which grapple? Wicked for Utility?

It's a 96" grapple that is not currently on the website, but it will be SOON.
I have mentioned it before on TBN, and have even sold a few, but we're just now getting around to extensively testing it with a tractor of the M6's magnitude.

Here's an 84" outfitted with a Euro hitch. It's home, if I remember correctly, is a 100hp Deutz Fahr tractor somewhere in the Midwest.
