Ryan\'s grapple owners?

Anyone else on here own a Ryan's grapple for their mini skid steer?

There is a push-bar on the top of the grapple which I'm considering modifying to accept a hitch, and don't want to reinvent the wheel if it's already been done by someone on here.

Thanks!

Dont have a ryans, but weld a receiver tube at the bottom where you heal logs. On both sides of it make up that area with teeth to help when healing a log.

I do something similar with my bmg. Move the chipper into tight spaces perfectly.

brendonv- Do you have a pic of this set up? I've been looking into grapples, but one of my biggest concern is always having to disconnect the grapple for hitch etc. We use the hitch almost every morning to hook up.

The BMG's come with a receiver hitch now. It plugs in to the bottom of the grapple's hanger, allowing the use of standard 2" receiver tools/hitches.

A standard BMG for mini's, with my forum discount is $2253.02, and we guarantee you'll like it! (30 day money back). The HD BMG (for full size loaders) is $3331.02.


I don't have a picture handy of the receiver implement for the grapple, but it's exceedingly straight forward, it plugs in to an existing hole in the grapple and provides a horizontal 2" receiver. We also have

thanks for your help, BrendonV. That's along the lines of what I was thinking, a picture could help too.

I used to own a BMG, Lumberjack - can you also post a picture when you have a moment? Where are you located in case I need one of these new ones?
