Grapple and install price check

Definiately worth considering and very competitive. Thanks for that comparison. Nice unit.

My pleasure!
It's a highly function work of art, and it has quickly became one of our best selling models!

WICKED Grapple Rake for SMALL Tractors!

This customer with a CK35 loves his Wicked 55.

With a 36" wide opening, it'll even carry his bucket around!

We've sold MANY of them for the Kubota B2650, which has a very comparable lift capacity!

View attachment 530675View attachment 530674I had the dealer instal my grapple. It was $1200 for the WR Long third function valve and installation. The grapple itself was $3200 for a Land Pride SGC 1560. Its a considerably heavier unit - 820# - than you have pictured but it also went on a much larger tractor.

I would definitely determine what brand of third function valve they are installing for $1200. For that price it had better be a WR Long or equal.

OK - so I tip-toed out and got a couple pics of my WR Long unit so you can compare it to yours.

Well - so much for being super crafty. At least I was able to upload the pics.

yes.. sorry I spit out the lift capacity for the 3 point hitch instead of the FEL. 1250 is right for the FEL.

My point I was trying to make when I miss stated that number was I intended to emphasize that I had little in the way of lift capacity to waste on weight of the implement. And thats doubly so with correct numbers. So yes... a 200 pound implement is ideal.

I am putting together a set up to grab, stack and move cut small saplings and little pine trees of say 5 feet tall and similar cedars as I cut them out. Ones of bigger than say 2 -3" diameter trunks.

That sure looks a lot like this one for sure... but I didn't take a picture of the front plate. At least not a good one. Ill see if I can manipulate the picture I took and read the front.

Thanks!

Added upon closer inspection.. It does say LONG on the side of it. Now mind you, this one I took pictures of was not a Kioti install. You can see its a McCorrmick. And according to the dealer there is a model specific one for my Kioti 2610. This one they were having to custom make up some of the brackets for it due to no specific model for this particular tractor that I took these pictures of.

So going rate then is about $1200 for a good dealer installed third function. Or as noted as low as about $800 for a do it yourself set up.

We offer the same WR Long kit with a custom valve mount, properly sized fittings and hoses along with the same replacement joystick handle for $837... or...even better... $787 when you buy it with a Wicked Grapple!

Yes sir. 100% truth.
This is why our Wicked 55 is the best choice for any small compact(like your Kioti and the Kubota B Series) or subcompact tractor(Kioti CS, Kubota BX, JD 1025R).

You will not be able to distinguish the feeling of driving around with your bucket installed vs the Wicked Grapple when it comes to agility, but the difference in ability will be HUGE!!

The EA light weight 55 inch was a great match for my little 25hp machine.
I got the grapple and 3rd function package deal and installed it myself.
The detailed instructions makes it pretty easy.
