I waffling back and forth about whether to buy stone bucket and add grapple attachment to help secure larger rocks in bucket or have stone bucket by itself and purchase dedicated grapple like Milonzi 48. I've seen the ATI advertisements on this site. Any experience with them or other bolt on or weld on kits??

I have an ATI but just got my tractor so I've only used it a few times for brush. It sure saves getting out of the tractor to stack brush. I have no rocks and I'm just picking up piles of wood and brush, but if I had big rocks and a lot more money I would probably looked for something bigger or bought a Grapple QA attachment and swtiched out when needed.
Note that when they put my ATI grapple on, they spot welded it on the side plates to keep it from loosening up and it works great.

Go here and check out their manuals. These told me a lot about the grapples before I bought one.

I just had this beast delivered last week and why I didn’t order this years ago I’ll never know.
For me when I pick up something, rocks, trees, branches, garbage etc. I ONLY want what I pick up NOT a lot of addition sand or dirt. When I dump the load in the trailer I’m only dumping the material, and not an extra ton of sand. And @ $40.00 a ton to dump it gets costly.
A rock or root grappler is the greatest thing invented for cleanup. It’s great how I can dig deep below what I’m picking up and it come up clean with just the item I’m after.
These people are great to work with, she put it on a truck the DAT I ordered it. Depending on your needs they can add more “tines” to the grappler to make smaller rocks stay in.
