Grapple Titan 48" JD quick attach grapple.

[dusty3030]

Picked it up yesterday at Titan warehouse in Collierville TN. Brandon was who I had spoken to on the phone and he loaded me up. Great to deal with and if you have an opportunity to go pick up in lieu of shipping I suggest you do it, it worked out well.
These babies were stacked to the ceiling as well as were the skid steer attach grapples.
Seems well built. Pivot points are greaseable pins.
Fit on a 400x loader perfectly.
Found the quick connects I needed at tractor supply for $20 for the set, hooray.
Finding a solution to get from the 1/2" pipe thread or the whatever the **** the hoses crimped on connector was to a 1/4" male to use the right pioneer coupler to hook up to deere's hardline kit is more challenging. I will post more on that at a later date. A hydraulic shop is going to be the best solution and I will post on that when I do the final fit, I used brass reduction fittings from Carquest for the short term cause that is all I could get on Memorial Day weekend round here.
I will wash the tractor and do better pics tomorrow.
Here is the grapple and the card on the pioneer couplers from TSC. Also included is a fine Kansas City Memorial Day weekend beverage.

Haven't used it enough to know better, I have some stuff lined up so when it dries up a little I'm going to give it a workout.

Trust me beer and tractors don't mix.

Nice root grapple and $20 a set of couplers ain't bad either. I just paid $150 for a set of flat faced couplers. Total for two 1/2" hoses 7' long for a new stump bucket grapple cost me $280 at the JD dealer.

What? Then why do the put a beer holder on every tractor?

I'm not sure mine will run without beer.

The only problem with your grapple is it looks a little green. Actually it looks good, did you paint it or do they over it in colors other than black.

The JD quick attach grapples come from Titan in JD green.

Based on the above 500lbs, I don't have a way to weight it practically so I can't tell you for certain by weighing mine.

View attachment 323287Here is a picture of the coupler. I went from their supplied 1/2 pipe adapter, put on a 1/2 to 3/8 reducer then a 3/8 to 1/4 reducer then the 1/4 Pioneer quick connect set I got from TSC.
Not the best, may not be forever, but I have decided to roll with it until it breaks if it breaks for now.

Can someone give me a current location to find one of these 48" Titan grapples for a John Deere 300cx loader? I need one with JD hooks and pins. (I cannot locate one that is not Skid Steer QA.)

I am very happy with my Titan FEL-mount 3 point attachment adapter
Although, I am not using it for the purpose it was designed for, I am using it to shove implements backwards.
[drop spreader on the FEL, running backwards]

At some point, I will get a lawn plugger for the same position.
