Hmm, how soon? Mine should be being built this month. :) (or soon, anyway).

I like that EA is always trying to improve their products. Can you tell us any more on what triggered this design change? Thanks. :thumbsup:

If yours is a few weeks out, it should be the new style. I can note so we will be sure if you call me or email travis@everythingattachments.com.

The Wicked 55 grapple has been one of the hottest, most well received products ever for EA, but we are constantly looking to improve and this is no exception!
We've been considering the change for a while and the creation and testing of our new 66 sealed the deal.
I have NEVER seen anyone use an EA Wicked Rake with the runners out, so I doubt anyone has ever removed them.
It takes quite a blunt, forceful, abusive hit to bend a runner, but a couple of people(Ted included with the L6060) have managed to do it. The DOM tubing is thick walled and will be practically bulletproof.

The Wicked 55 Grapple Rake allows small tractors to do BIG things. The capacity is very impressive as well.
This is a Kubota B2301 flexing it's muscles!

These Wicked 55 grapple reviews were recently submitted to our website. I think the people like it.
P.S. The wait time will be reduced very soon!!

First, I'll share some keyword excerpts because there isn't room for all of the reviews here!
"Attention to detail is amazing with EA. Perfection in many ways."
"Very, very happy. Would order from EA again! (Shout-out to Travis who was excellent to work with and was more patient with me than I deserved - great guy with a great customer-service-focused attitude)."
"The EA Root Rake Grapple has quickly and easily become the most versatile and well-utilized attachment on my B2601."
"EA was the only company that really showed their equipment in real world use Showing that grapple on a 60 hp tractor"
"This attachment is the absolute best attachment that i own."
"55 inch grapple is a Monster!"

Howard from Minnesota has one on his John Deere 4115 SUBcompact tractor
"I really don't know how I survived this long without a tool like this. By far my favorite. This thing makes large jobs puny. There is almost nothing one can't do around the yard or cabin. What a backsaver! I have it on a 2005 JD 4115. It is truly amazing what I can accomplish with little effort. Makes work fun. No BS! Kudos to the design team as this is yet another successful addition to the lineup. Good work and THANK YOU!"

Jack from Oregon has one on his Mahindra Max
"Awesome Wicked Grapple
I wish I had bought this years ago! The first thing I did was stack rocks at my drive way entrance. Then picked up chunks of wood and brush and put it in the burn pile, then ripped out black berries and hauled to the burn pile. I had a pile of dirt and rocks that I could not flatten out with my bucket the grapple tore it apart one pile of rocks and a pile of soft dirt, then grabbed a RR tie with the grapple and used it the flatten the pile.
To remove bitter brush I put the teeth in the ground about 5 inches drove through and closed the grapple. I would try this with the bucket and get nowhere! It is made of AR 400 and if you aren't a fabricator, it is alloy high strength steel and much better than mild steel. Pins have grease zerks and has the good tie rod cylinders. I called to order and they treat you like a friend. I have highly recommend this to everyone that says what is that and where did you get it? Most people have not seen one around here. I put mine on a 20HP Mahindra."

Will from Virginia has one on his Kubota L3560
"Best "tool" in my farm arsenal
I almost purchased a construction type of grapple when I came across the Wicked Root Rake Grapple from EA.
I cant express enough about the overall satisfaction with this grapple. It is so tough and versatile. I have used it for general clearing around our fields, moving debris, and raking the ground before rough area plantings and seed plots. But my intended job was to harvest locust tree poles for my hop yard.
I needed 50 locust trees 22' to 24' in length, 8" to 12" in diameter. If you have ever dealt with locust you know that they are one of the densest and heaviest trees in America.
My Wicked Grapple helped me clear paths and when it was time to handle the locust after I got them out of the woods I couldn't have been more impressed.
I thought I would end up breaking or bending the grapple but after handling each of these locust trees a minimum of 3 times I have only wore down some of the paint job.
I have nothing bad to say about my EA 55" Wicked Root Rake Grapple."

Alex from Wisconsin has one on his Kubota B2650
"I imagine most people who are shopping for a tractor grapple have the same main question: what can my tractor handle while being effective at a maximum level? My tractor is a Kubota B2650 which is a compact 26 HP model. Most grapples I considered seemed too heavy or too flimsy. I tend to use my tractor to its maximum capacity regularly so both weight and strength were a big consideration. I can honestly say I got this one right. The 200 pound weight of this grapple makes it easily maneuverable with my compact tractor while the solid build seems almost indestructible on this size tractor. I use this grapple to its maximum and would highly recommend this product."

Leon from Washington has one on his John Deere 1025R SUBcompact tractor!
"They don't call it Wicked for nothing!
This is another tool that I don't know how I lived without. I use this on a JD 1025r and it takes out stubborn brush like Scotch Broom, Salmonberry and Blackberry with no problem. I have used it to move boulders and trees. l back rake and leave the area clean and ready to plant with grass or garden. I have even used it to demolish small buildings and load up my trailer to dump. I have been very rough with it and there is no wear or damage. This is truly a remarkable, well made unit. Traffic stop to watch when I am working and I have recommended it to all that ask about it. I only wish that Everything Attachments had a West Coast distributor. Thank you guys, good job!

Mark from Texas has one on his John Deere 2210(this is another SUBcompact tractor!)
"The first job I tackled was moving a large pile of cut cedar trees to a better place to burn them. This was 10 trailer loads (20' long and 8' high) all loaded with the grapple on my small JD. I was extremely pleased with how well the grapple worked. Made a big job easy."

Matt from Georgia has one on his Kubota L3301
"I love this grapple. I've abused it just like Travis said not to do, lol. But seriously I've put it through the ringers and it performs flawlessly. It can handle so much more than my kubota L3301 can dish out, it's not even a fair fight. The only downside is the wait but it's worth every agonizing minute. I wouldn't even consider a grapple from another company."

Jay from Maine has one on his Kubota L3901
"I have been using this to help clear 8 acres of land. Best purchase I have made. Pulls stumps, picks up piles of brush with ease. I had raked up the small broken up stuff into piles and this worked great to shake out the top soil before I hauled the wood off. I agree with everyone who say "Don't know how I lived without it". Awesome product, great service."

Troy from Florida has one on his Mahindra 1538
"Outstanding grapple Your Wicked Root Grapple is amazing. I waited a bit longer than I wanted to...but it was well worth the wait. Thank you Everything Attachments!"

Rick from Colorado has one on his Kubota L2501
"Best Bang for the Bucks!
Just as many others have said, outstanding unit! Very high quality and way stronger than it looks. Like many the YouTube ad got me and I just had to try it. I have it on a new and modified L-2501 Kubota that has a bit more go than the stock unit and I use it all! this grapple is a wonderful match and rips brush and small trees out like they were never rooted. I worked it hard over the last two weeks testing its ability and if it lacks something I haven't found it. No damage so far and it will handle well over 1000 lb.s logs."

Barry from Georgia has one on his John Deere 3032E
"Nothing short of excellent!
I purchased this root rake on the advice of the sales team which I have always found helpful. On a J.D. 3032E I needed the weight reduction to allow for better performance. I have been clearing fence lines and hauling limbs constantly since my purchase. Score one for "Everything Attachments". I had the rake painted green. It looks as good as it works!"

Herb from Georgia has one on his Kubota L3301
"I have a Kubota L3301 and I have put about 20 hours on the grapple so far and it has exceeded my expectations. I was a little skeptical when I first got it - I have a tendency to be pretty rough on equipment and it didn't look as heavy duty as I had hoped. However, I had viewed the U TUBE video with the same grapple on a 70 horse Kubota with little to no damage and customer service assured me I would be happy with it. The were right. I have ripped up trees, roots and all, picked up 30 inch oak logs eight feet long and pushed over scrub trees and privet and this grapple looks brand new. The fact that it only weights around 210 pounds is a huge advantage when you are using a sub compact tractor. If you are on the fence - BUY IT. This thing is a beast for it's size and weight."

I'm so excited about all of the Wicked Awesome feedback!

Chris in Maryland has a Wicked 55 grapple rake on his John Deere 2720 and was so kind to share this scene with us in the EA Channel Group.

"The Wicked Grapple is so handy... no, Literally, it's a set of hands. Anyone who has dealt with forsythia knows how much work it is chopping and hacking at it with a saw and using a Pitchfork to load it on the trailer... I took this bush down to a 4 foot tall ball in one hour and had it loaded on the trailer too! Grapple also ripped at some of the outer roots away from the center. UNBELIEVABLE work saver.

Now I have 50 more bushes. Not even worried."

I just received some more great feedback via email.

"Just wrote a review on your site, but wanted to take a minute (since it is raining here and I am not using the best attachment I ever bought right now) to thank you for your communications during my waiting period and to let you know how much I LOVE the grapple!!
Am sure you are aware of all the uses it has but there are a couple I did not consider when I bought it until I used it, like; It can be used as a rake when you open it up and tilt it all the way down and pick up all the little stuff without getting off the tractor, since it is shorter than forks you can maneuver and tight areas easier, the lighter weight allows you to carry more (it weighs less than the pallet forks)???
Have showed the grapple to a few friends and you will be getting more orders, so hope your expansion is going well.
Waiting for the weather to get a little cooler so I can really use the grapple, but I have already cleaned up two locations that have been driving me crazy since building the house and cut enough wood for use for the winter.
Keep up the good work and don't let the turkeys get you down!!
Your friend in Michigan."

This great feedback was submitted over the weekend. Bruce from Canada has a Wicked 55 on his Kubota B3000.
It sounds like quite the job to complete with a small tractor, but the WICKED makes small tractors Mighty!!
Travis

"Wickedly Happy
I have used the grapple to clean up a fallen in 32'x48' wooden arch Quonset and a 28'x40' shop with a 12' lined and insulated wall. I twisted, pulled, pushed, battered, rammed and hauled both buildings 250 yards away to be burnt. I didn't baby the grapple, just worked it hard. The only thing on the grapple that I damaged was the paint. It took me about 40 hrs to complete the jobs."
