Jd 4700
I am in the market for a grappler for my JD 4700, 460 loader, 48 backhoe. I was looking at a 72” by Titan products. Are they any good? If someone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

Also, I need to purchase a 3rd valve kit for the tractor. Again, I would appreciate any advice

Thanks

On my previous tractor I had a WR Long third function kit with a Wild Kat grapple for over ten years. On my current tractor I have the Kubota third function kit with a MTL grapple. All have worked well.

I have the Titan 60 in. bolt on grapple and I was very impressed with the quality.

WR Long is the way to go on the valve, hands down! I don't know who made my grapple but it has been a very good one. Bought it slightly used in a package deal and it is heavy duty! It also weighs a lot, but that is ok with my tractor!

EA grapple is indestructible... WR Long on the 3rd function.

I have the Titan 72 dual lid as well as the WR Long third function. Been very happy with the grapple and the price was unbeatable. It is heavier than many of the other grapples most likely due to a lower strength steel requiring greater thickness which is a negative however it hasn’t impacted my usage thus far.

One thing I have found incredibly useful are the tines at the front; so easy to grade with and rake out loose material.
