OK you guys know I have the LP grapple and I like it but as with anything there is always room for a mod.
So with that in mind, we know that gathering brush limbs ect. they sometimes push trough the openings in the grapple, getting very close to a very expencive radiator! So I was contemplating expanded metal maybe 1/2 inch opening, welded to the grapple closing these opening off on the top and bottom jaws and protecting the hoses and other things. I know I am not conveying my thought very clearly, but if you look at a grapple open and closed you will understand what I am thinking,,,, So input yea or nay and reasons.
