A couple of points. A lot of attachments can be had with the JD quick attach setup for the FEL. It sounds like you are going to get a grapple and the bucket, you should be fine with the JD setup.

The quick hitch on the back will hook up to most newer implements. I’m not sure why the dealer said that. There is a standard spacing that is required for the quick hitch and most newer implements will work. Sometimes the top hook up won’t quite work but someone makes and extender type setup for it.

Better to get the SSQA attachment from JD if you can. Then you can buy any used attachment you want instead of being limited to just JD which is a Much smaller pool to pick from.

We are staying with JD attachment system. I have used SSQA quite a bit at my old job and did have buckets fall off while back blading. Nonetheless, with just a bucket an grapple being used, why spend the $$ for a SSQA front plate? Nearly all attachment manufacturers offer the JD mounts anyway AND they might stay on better.
