IslandTractor -- Hope You're Right....

[jeffinsgf]

I ordered a Millonzi 48" grapple this morning. Got a lot of ice storm damage to clean up.

I'm right behind you Jeff...........I hope. I've got a deal working that should provide the bucks to order mine.

Did you order your grapple online? If so what site?

I hope to order mine in a week or two. Once I saw what the electric hydraulic valve kit was going to cost me, I got to second guessing the economics of the situation. But, I'm about to have some beetle damaged timber cut and that grapple sure would be handy for post-harvest clean up.

Later,

BR

No, I ordered it by phone from John Kennedy at (TBN sponsor) Millonzi International. See various threads re: grapple size and weight for brush handling. IslandTractor convinced me that bigger is not always better.

Still trading e-mails and phone calls to be sure they get the JD bucket mount hooks and pins on right.

Millonzi has the admirable policy of not using online ordering. They want to keep a close working relationship with their customers. I recently ordered my brush grapple rake from Markham Welding and they are the same way. You can go to the websites and send e-mails for information but for ordering you need to call directly, which is good.

I called to order from Millonzi and they are trying to get specs I guess from Deere to make it fit my 200cx loader. My dealer called today and said my diverter was in, so maybe in a few weeks, I get to start playing. JC

We're probably giving them fits, since I just went through that with them on a 430 loader. I could have used my skid steer adapter, but I wanted to save the weight for lift capacity. I think they've got it right.

jeff, I'm in the same boat as you. I want the 48" ld grapple for my 3320 but didn't want the adapter. John said they would customize it to fit the JD quick tach pin setup. I can't wait to get it. I'm also ordering a thumb for my 448 hoe. Millonzi has been great to deal with so far. I'm sure ISland was right!!
