My Place: a CAT, Mahindra, and Ducks

Brandi, it's God's country - No airports, few cell phones and no shopping malls.

With your Southwest Airlines view of the world, it's ~2 hours south of Rochester, NY on the "best side" of the NY/PA border.

We did an engine change on a DC-9 years ago in Rochester. The local airport bar and grill had great wings.:licking: Didn't get to see anything while there. 16 hours days kinda cut site seeing out of the picture.

Lots of folks say their state is God's country. Well, GOD lives in Texas. Those other places are just his weekend hangouts!:2cents:
hugs, Brandi

For the Lull have you seen any of the grapple on forks threads here on TBN?

Some pictures: grapple on pallet forks - Image Search

And some just slide on the forks: Slide On

And the optional log clamp:

I don't want forks to move logs because you can not pull back on forks to move a log. The forks just pivot up. I like the root grapples as they can be wiggled into the log stack and snatch onto a log when forks would just be flopping in the breeze.

A short chain will keep the forks from "flopping in the breeze":

If you can convert your Lull .. to hookup standard SSQA attachments .. likely you'll never regret it Brandi. Pallet forks are good .. but limited .. IMHO .. to lifting pallets and similar.

A set of remotes to your boom would be needed for a grapple, etc. has that been done on a Lull?

Does the Lull have a "high flow" hydraulic outlet, like a typical skid steer?

Rick,
I only bid on machines with forward hyd.
I will buy one of these, as soon as I get the quick-tach off and verify measurements....... Tele-Tach Converts Your Telehandler To Skid Steer Attachments
.........so I can use my grapple on it. I have skid steer forks, but will buy a heavy duty model. My forks are thin and only 42 inches.
Merry Christmas hugs, Brandi

I don't think the chains and the pallet grapple would work right pulling huge logs from under huge logs in a pile when you want one specific log on the bottom of the pile.
