Don't forget guys, you can hold a lot of stuff in a grapple with just a single lid and save some money and lift capacity too. Helps to have a healthy 42+" opening width too.

You are so predictable. I posted this just to see how long it would take for you to respond. Honestly I expected a reply much sooner.

I'm still enjoying your pics, mopardude. Sometimes I look through the Wicked collection after emails in the morning and play around with filters.

I don't think this Christmas tree will fluff back out! :laughing:

I also ordered a EA 66" XTreme-Duty Box Blade and a EA 3-point hitch receiver (for my pintle-hitch Vermeer chipper)... Sent the $$$ yesterday/5 Dec... Hoping for delivery be/for(e) Christmas...

I have figured-out how to post pics (when I have some grapple-action shots) but not how to establish an avatar...

In the process of reading EVERY post in this 'grapple' thread... Almost finished... Some very interesting-helpful/some NOT... I hesitated joining a forum like this because I dislike the personal bickering... These E-forums are NOT great venues for full understanding/expression of what is said/meant/perceived/etc... I appreciate genuine help, excellence NOT perfection, grace vs judgement, accuracy vs precision, and a chance to correct/admit a mistake...

Thanks, Dog! I'll tell the guys to hurry efficiently every chance they get. These Wicked things are keeping us very busy. We've purposefully created a monster here, in multiple literal and figurative senses of the word.

If you've read it from the start, you're probably getting the feeling of pulling back into the station after taking a ride on a coaster! :laughing:


Here's a fitting direct copy and paste from a reply of mine in the EA Channel Group yesterday on the subject of sales...
We definitely do not take the pushy salesman approach. I personally can't stand dealing with anyone who does. I do tend to get excited when talking grapples and attachments because I know we are the best and why, but it's not a hurry up and buy kind of excited.

EA is genuine and strives for excellence, but it goes beyond the product. You should know you are getting the complete package by becoming one of our valued customers. . We regularly place the needs and concerns of our customers above our own. We totally know who pays us for doing what we love.

I have tried to do my 'diligent-responsible homework' and most feedback about/from 'Everything Attachments' is favorable... NOT perfect but certainly 'in the excellent category' and so I made a decision/choice/$$$ investment-commitment... I also favor the 'family business'/'made in USA' aspects...

I have several properties/projects/proprietors/associates/employers/contracts (East of the big-ditch) that EA equipment may effect... I would strongly suggest they try to increase their quality/service/capacity so that they can also avail themselves of customer input/do more research-development, some (more) custom work and thus stay 'on top of their game/competition' (FWIW, take it from someone who managed CE construction projects/contracts for DOA 30 years)...

So far I am happy with my recent choice of the new KUBOTA L4701DT (having 1st-hand experience with New Holland/John Deere), a family-farm history and various OEM/'home-made/modified' attachments/implements... NOTE: The KUBOTA L4701DT is not an industrial machine but it is a VERY nice balance between a compact/utility/economy tractor...

Many have suggested/recommended 72" implements for this machine (to match the tires) and I have taken their advice in SOME cases, but I down-sized it a bit for the EA (Wicked dual-lid 66") grapple and their XTreme 66" Box Blade... I have my reasons/rationale...

I labored long/hard over the 60" vs 66" vs 72" EA Grapple... Will be interesting to see how it works-out with the 66" but my decision/choice gives me an interesting option and I liked the extra/reinforced sides/corners with the 3.5" tine-spacing on the 66" (I tend to do more damage to my implements on their outside edges/corners)...

Anyway... Nice to hear from EA/Travis... Looking forward to delivery and I PROMISE to post some VERY interesting/engaging pictures...

Someone please tell/show me how to post/include an avatar...

I am not arguing with you, I am simply trying to explain why you may be wrong...

It is better to be a Live Dog than a dead lion...

I keep reading where some folks are having trouble making the connections to the Flush face Hydraulic couplings when reattaching their grapples. As there is residual hydraulic pressure in the grapple. Anyone have this problem ? If so what are the fix. Thanks
