tell me about it.. i'm in s/w NH and know all too well why we call it the granite state.

thx for the info - i'm going to purchase this same unit before i start restoration on the next field. i think the shipping rates will be similar due to our close proximity to one another.

Thanks for the info on this root grapple. I am ordering a Heavy Duty 72" model. I haven't found a better price on anything comparable including the shipping cost. will be putting this on a NH TC55DA

Here's the pic of one on DK50C. Do a search for "wicked lookin" for some more.

There you go running that beautiful dog down again, calling it names like "wicked lookin." /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Have you had any issues at all with that grapple that you'd care to discuss? I sure do like it, but it would be a real weight overkill on my little CK20. Maybe on the next one.

Could be time to get a little down & dirty with the grapple too & post some more pics!
Sure does make a hansome looking tractor look kinda mean & nasty doesn't it.
Still it does look like you really mean business.

I want one too!

The only problem I can see with the grapple is, he won't let me play with it as much as I like, belongs to LTEnterprises. Maybe it's just pay back time. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif That would look cool on your CK20, but you may have a problem with the 7xx lbs. weight.

I like the hook up from the grapple to the loader..... I just ordered a DK65s for myself to use.

Is the aux. hydraulics already on the loader to use the grapple? If not.... what do I need?

I also have a skid steer so I want the hydraulics to be a flat face coupler just like my LS 190 New Holland skid steer.

osconda,

I have the same tractor and am looking for a root grapple also. I'd be very interested in some pics and what you did with the hydraulics to get it hooked up once you have yours in place.

I used the rear remote hydraulics..I had 2 line made with quick disconnects and nylon strapped them under the tractor.
I pull up on the rear hyd lever to open / push down to close..works great..it's really simple to run the lines. I put them at the upper part of the loader frame, I just grab the connectors, plug em together and away I go..I have the QA and I dont even fret connecting / disconnecting / changing front attachments..I can get a TON of stuff done reall fast too ! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
