Finally jumped- grapple, 3rd fxn, and quick attach adapter.

I have had a kubota quick attach for a couple years, never mounted it because all I had was the pin mount bucket. I knew I would eventually add something.
(BTW found the new never mounted QA adapter at the scrap yard!)
Finally ordered a 60" EA single lid grapple, 3rd function hydro kit, and a weld on back plate for my current bucket.
Now I just have to wait 6-8 weeks for the grapple. Lots of work waiting for it this spring.

Your going to like it. I just a Land pride grapple last fall and in the short time I got to use it before I had to put the blower on I fell in love quickly. Definitely a back saver, enjoy.

Like Bearbait said you're going to love it.

I could finally justify it when the power company came through and cleared their easement through my property. They took out 820' of hedge row and left me a mess. I also have another almost 1/2 mile of hedge row that is about 15 years overdue for a cut back.
Gonna be some brush piles...

Sounds like you're in for a few flat tires!!

Certainly possible. They used a track machine with a hydro shredder and they shredded old fence wire and hedge all the way to the ground.
Osage orange and some black locust in there with plenty of thorns. Hopefully the R4 bar treads are resistant.

I help a neighbor off an on with the cleaning of several acres of Red Cedar, Osage Orange and Locust. I can walk in and help get some branches out of the way and load some firewood, and when I get home I have 10-15 thorns stuck in my boots! Steel tracks, solid SS tires, or foam filled tractor tires are the only way go get around those thorns.
