Wicked 55 root rake grapple on a 25HP compact?

[TractorTYMe]

Darryl N Have you found a grapple alternate?

Catawba attachments has a wicked 55 clone that is maybe 50 lb heavier. Same "free shipping" deal, $2600.
Good: they have a few in stock.
Bad: as soon as I post this, they will sell those and be backordered for 4 months by the time I get my $3k back on my CC.



They are 8 miles from EA. Speculation: EA NOS or seconds/rejects? Is Ted C is working with them?

Hey Darryl,

I saw this post and figured I would chime in to clear everything up! We are definitely no way related to EA other than location. Lets just say, that EA name does not have the best reputation locally and I am sure you can guess why. We have ramped up to be sure we stay up to date on keeping up with orders and keeping stock availible!
I believe you ended up snagging one so hopefully you are putting it to work and enjoying the purchase!
