I just ordered my 72" dual lid from EA today. Looking forward to some serious tree removal around my field edges. I've also got a lot of downed trees and brush to clear in the timber. My timber is impassable in many areas as there hasn't been any livestock ran in about 40 years. Trying to improve the hunting and overall appearance. Travis at EA was a big help.

I'm glad we got everything lined up today. :cool2: Now, for the hardest part!! :jaded:

Travis please let me in on the joke... Who is Stormy Daniels? What is her connection with YOU/Everything Attachments and the Wicked Grapple Bucket? I don't get it...

You would have to ask Donald Trump or a least his lawyer :D

Well if you would just bring me one Monday morning that would solve the wait problem. I'll give you a pork chop necklace and we'll go down the road and you can play with the Lion.

I'd feel much safer after you have some seat time with the Wicked Grapple! The Lion will be on our turf then!! :laughing:

I've been busy at work and haven't had a chance to post here in a bit. I found a new way (to me anyways) to use my Wicked Twin. Instead of getting off and changing bucket/grapple/bucket/grapple ect doing a back fill the other day I just grabbed the bucket in the grapple and gave it a try. (insert epiphany here) It was a cold, blowing day so I didn't mind staying in the cab as much as possible.

Turns out I can scoop/haul/blade loose material really well by just grabbing the bucket in the grapple and using it almost like it was attached normally. I say almost because the bucket does move around some in the grapple. There is also an advantage in back dragging with this set up. The tines in the floor of the grapple hold quite a bit of loose dirt similar to a mini land leveler. If there is a little loose dirt it does a faster/cleaner final grade. WIN-WIN!!!

In this instance I was having to back fill and level a bit then drop the bucket to pickup roots/limbs that were coming to the surface and getting in the way of a good final grade. Just grabbing the bucket made the job go faster and easier on me. Smarter not harder!

All these uses for the Wicked Twin makes me wonder what else it can do!

Cataclysm, clever idea in a pinch! But the teeth on my Wicked grapple are pretty sharp. I'd have to spend a lot longer than usual to buff the scratches out of my bucket's paint at the end of the work day.

I would never, the grapple would do damage to the bucket.

That’s probably not the best plan for moving dirt, but I do that to load it on the trailer.
