5 of 5 Love my new grapple June 2, 2023
Reviewer: MIKE KILLIN from OXFORD, OH United States  
I’ve had my grapple for 4 days now and worked it for a couple hours each day.
I’ve been more than pleasantly surprised at what it can do on a little 25HP BX tractor. It is a beast and it is awesome!!  Your back will love you for getting one. This grapple will likely be the most used implement I have for my Kubota BX.  
In a couple of other reviews there were some complaints about grease zerks not being accessible for the top clamp pins but that is a simple fix - just replace them with 90 degree Zerks for about $1 each.  
I also agree that it would have been nicer for the pins that are supplied to fit the grapple to the tractor had a beveled leading edge, but that was a quick modification with the grinder.
I’d buy one again in a heartbeat and have zero regrets!

5 of 5 Great People May 12, 2023
Reviewer: James Ortery from Liberty, MO United States  
After the long wait, it has performed as designed and is strong due to being fully welded. Great clamping force and grip. I'm just a touch disappointed in the top hydraulic cylinder greaseable bolts used verses the pins pictured on the website. They make it difficult to grease the hinges in the lid as the nuts are in the way with a straight fitting on your grease gun, and they make contact with the mounting brackets as they're too big. A slight design change could correct they issue or relocate the grease fittings. The paint isn't holding up well at all, any contact it comes off, not other attachment that I've purchased or that came with the tractor has done this, sure they have gotten scratched and marred, but not straight to bare metal. In all it works great and has done what I hoped that it would do. I would purchase another one. Thanks for allowing my input, I'm more crucial than most end users.  EA RESPONSE;  We use bolts instead of pins because they're much more stable with zero chance of slipping off, contrary to how pins mysteriously become missing during use.  By the review, it makes it sounds like we're using bolts to cut corners, but it is actually just the opposite.  We also center drill the bolts and tap them in house, which makes them greasable.  With ground engaging attachments such as this grapple, paint is something to make it look pretty off the pallet, but if you get it out and use it, it's only a matter of time before it disappears.  I hope these words assist others.  Thanks for the business.

5 of 5 Kubota BX third function kit installation. January 4, 2023
Reviewer: Glenn Nunsinger from Georgetown, CA United States  
The the third function kit arrived long before the wicked grapple and I decided to wait until the grapple arrived before installing the third function kit.  When I started to install the third function valve I found that the valve bracket was not designed to fit my tractor.  When the manufacturer silently declined to replace their bracket with one that did fit, I enlisted the help of a local welder to manufacture a bracket that would fit my tractor.  Now I'm in the process of routing the third function kit hydraulic hoses from my tractor to the third function valve.  I'm considering removing the right rear tractor wheel to facilitate installing those hoses.  The third function kit installation instructions are so abbreviated that they are almost useless.  The grapple looks like it should work nicely, but I have not yet finished installing the third function kit.

5 of 5 Review January 4, 2023
Reviewer: Kevin Makely from Amosville, VA United States  
The Grapple is awesome I love it, but a few things could be better rounding the edges of the pins would be very beneficial and make installing much easier also I had spent the day trying to get hydraulic fitting to match the 3rd function had to be ordered not sure how you could make sure the two match. But great product well built and would highly recommend to anyone.
Thanks
Kevin Makely  EA RESPONSE:  Thanks for the business.  We always discuss hydraulic couplers with each customer, so if you let us know which size/series of coupler you have on your tractor, we'll be glad to send the matching ones on the grapple.
