JD 750 grapple question

[matoyan]

I have an opportunity to get a new grappler for my JD 750 with a 67 loader for cheap. The grappler weighs about 800 lbs and it's 64 inches. would that be too much weight for the loader? the manual says the lift capacity is 800 lbs. I don't know what the weight of a 60 inch bucket is compared to the grappler. any suggestions?

800# grapple on a loader with 800# lift capacity?

That is WAY to big, you need something in the 200-300 pound range and no wider than 48"

Another option is just to add a thumb to your bucket on these low lift loaders.

Thank you for all the help. It was such a good deal that I had to see if it was worth me buying it. A brand new grappler for $1500 OBO. Oh well, I'll keep looking.
