Looks great why did you relocate it? to it extended out further? Or the bucket wasn't strong enough?

It seemed to work better in front of the bucket. I also had to brace the back of the bucket

oh ok thanks..My bucket top has some reinforcement and i plan to weld on a piece of angle to bolt it down through.I have a home made tooth bare as well. so am hoping the grapple and teeth will make easy to grab a log and hold it as I chut it to legnth. Right now I ahve to use a chain to git up in the air.
I wonder have you used it for brush? Like have the bucket in ful dump and grapple opena dn come down on the pile and then bite it?

I have the same grapple on a 2210. I have moved TONS of brush and branches, even stumps and logs, with the grapple........
