Have you seen the grapples on eBay? They attach (weld) to the existing loader bucket and are reasonably priced compared to a dedicated grapple. ....

I just ordered a Grapple/Rake made by Addington Equipment in New Hampshire, (Link Below). Two of my neighbor's each have one and have been making rock walls, these things are tough, I mean 4 and 5 foot boulder type rocks and nothing on the grapple has bent. One neighbor did bend the curling pistons on the loader because he opened the grapple and back dragged with the top part of the grapple with the front end of tractor off the ground and fetched up on a rock, $600.00 OUCH.

I had just brought a Root bucket Grapple from WR Long. It's great. It's their RBG-60. I've only had it for two weeks now. I use it to pick up branches and logs. The only thing it would be nice if it could rip out stumps. Oh it will do small stumps about 5 inches in diameter. ....

I just completed the brackets for a grapple on my JD3120. It is a little heavy for the front loader, 400lbs. I tried to pull a few boulders, one worked, one didn't. Same with some downed timber. Brush should be easy. I will try to post some pictures. ....
