Grapple Steel-tec grapple

What happened to Piranha?

I bought my grapple from them now all links to their site seem to be gone?

Maybe they forgot to pay their domain name bill? Bummer if that is what happened.

Another thread on this forum implied that this was their new home...
Grapple Buckets

I am guessing that they had to change the name to avoid a brand name conflict with these folks:

Shamrock Steel Fabricators - PIRANHA Series Excavator Grapples

Makes sense to me...I wonder what kind of legal letter head showed up at the NOW WildKat business...but you think they would have had some kind of forwarding link setup, at least for a while...

Yeah. I talked to them last week on a warranty issue. Never occurred to me to ask about the name change and why no formal (or informal) announcement. I guess they just figured that folks would eventually figure it out for themselves.
