Grapple Quick Attach and Grapple for Industrial Tractor\Loader??

[wjb-49]

Cool! :thumbsup:

I found a 55" one locally for $250.. little beat up and rusty, and might be a little on the light side and I will need to beef it up some, but for only $250... well.... It does have a newer cylinder :thumbsup:

Post what you do for the hydraulics.. I'm finding my controls really cramped with the power beyond blocked by bracing. The return is part of the loader frame as well meaning its not gonna be easy to move them or buy a generic 3 spool valve.

Sounds like you made a good find!:dance1: Having the ability and equipment to "beef up" equipment is a great asset.

I will post what I do to resolve the hydraulics upgrade. I am on the trail of a solution that is unfolding in this thread: "Has anyone used Unlimited Fabrications?"

HAHA.. dont know if either of those applies to me.. I dont even have a proper shop yet, just a sand driveway.

I'll look for a solution as well. Though I must admit you are my inspiration ATM

Well . . . Sounds like we're both pretty determined and I'm sure a solution will develop!

Hydraulics solution found!:cool2: Brian, of Fit Rite Hydraulics, recommended this SelectPLUS 12 GPM Selector Valve Assemblystarter kit for my tractor. It is on the way! Thanks to Brian for taking the time to talk with me and for locating a setup that satisfies my needs!

At the risk of highjacking this thread any more.. Sorry Barry

Its old, light duty (more manure bucket than grapple), and has the 'old' bobcat style connects, but the price was right and I have a welder

Not hijacking at all! I think it's great that we share our "finds." Especially those as good as yours!

A little welding, a little paint - good as new

It looks like a gooder-un! It will work just fine for brush. Should be easy to make it fit your loader.
