Grapple Fork Lift + Grapple

[yooperdave]

Does anyone make a fork lift attachment with an optional grapple on top? I would think you would have the ability to use the fork lift by itself, and then use it with the grapple to really move some brush and trees around.

I have not seen one yet, but might build one for myself.
Search for the word grapple, you will find a lot of ideas.

Do you mean fork lift or pallet fork?

If you are talking about pallet forks, skidworks http://www.skid-steer-attachments.net/forks.htm
"Skidworks manufactures skid steer pallet forks with a 48", 42" or custom size option. Pallet fork grapple available upon request."

Also;

Yooperdave, I also like the Idea of switching my quick attach bucket to quick attach forks and a grapple. You could really get under brush and hold on and move it - kind of like very long bucket teeth, and also unload pallets. I e-mailed Budgetforklift to find out if they would work on my quick attach and where to get them and the price. Does anyone see a major disadvantage of a grapple fork?

I found this picture (lower left corner) at Carver Equipment's Webpage. If this is what you are talking about, I think it would grab brush VERY well.
