So it was basically 10 days. That's the window I was given when I called. That's not bad for truck freight being involved. Good luck.
What else did you buy, you said an $&@%* of stuff! Inquiring minds need to know.

I bought the 72" root grapple, 60" HD forks, (2) 3/8 attachment cutout mountain plates and the weld on quick attach assembly. I gotta say. So far I am impressed w the quality. But the packaging SUCKS. The grapple was out in a nice metal angle iron crate. The quick attach, mounting plates and forks were strapped to a pallet. Then set on top of the grapple crate. Well the pallet shifted, straps came loose and the pallet fell on to the grapple hydraulic hoses pinching 2 of them.

How deep is the SSQA kit from where the pin on ears would be welded on, to where it latches into an attachment?
Wondering how much farther out in front of the tractor my bucket would be with one of these installed
What thickness of plate is normally used on a standard bucket?
I see they sell 1/4, 5/16, 3/8 and 1/2"
I assume the solid plates are stronger and the cutout plates are for surfaces that aren't totally flat?

When I received my Wildkat grapple, it was simply sitting on a pallet. No straps whatsoever. And it arrived without a scratch.

Yeah.... I think you're truck fell off one of those Kentucky mountains!
I talked with an engineer at ATI, and they seemed to think for my tractor, 2000#+ Breakout, that no solid plate was needed and the 3/8" with 1/2" upper lip is more than adequate. He was thinking that was over engineered.

It added approx 6" to my tractor when I cut off my bucket brackets and welded them the the SSQA
I ordered a 3/8 cut out bracket. I went with 3/8 because my tractor is 60hp, 10,00lbs and 4,500lbs brake out force. The cut out because my bucket has a rounded back and with the cuto out design I can add gussets between the plate and the bucket. With a solid plate I could not do that.
Whn I go to make my snow plow mount I am going to go with a 1/2 solid plate
