5 of 5 48" November 7, 2024
Reviewer: Tim H from Kingsport, TN United States  
Works as it should. Well built, works great on my Kubota bx25d with the adapter I got from AT1. Don't be worried about doing business with them because of the past events. I paid for it the day it shipped. Smooth transaction.

The welds and finish on this are awesome and it works as it should. Glad to see that a US mfg. is able to build a superior product at a fair price.

3 of 5 Grapple ok, 3rd function kit lacking improve both June 26, 2023
Reviewer: Jake from Harwood, MD United States  
The pin-on grapple is mostly well designed but could use some improvement. The loader arm brakets are about 1/2" too close together so I had to compress the arms to fit. The grapple is not direct pin-on, you need to use the EA provided pins instead of the Kubota pins with grease channels built into them. The pin design doesn't account for the FEL parking stand so that has to be removed when the grapple is installed. They installed straight grease zerks into the grapple pivot point which makes it impossible to grease with a standard gun, just ordered angled zerk fittings.  
The the provided hoses on the tractor side for the 3rd function kit are too long and instead of having the return line go directly back into the trans it has you use the existing hose creating another coupling to leak and limited room around the control box. I had custom hoses made for $130 so one of the hoses wouldn't be dragging on the ground or caught up in the belly mower.  EA RESPONSE:  It sounds like something was not properly installed, concerning the valve kit, because our Wicked Grapple and WR Long valve kit include properly sized hoses for the tractor requested.  We will reach out to find out what is going on here.

4 of 5 Grapple is awesome, 3rd valve kit sucks. June 26, 2023
Reviewer: Robert Harris from Lyme, CT United States  
Everyone knows this is the best grapple available for the BX so I'll skip to the 3rd valve add on kit. I wasn't impressed. Lines that came with grapple are minimal and I still have to get them remade as they were too short for full curl. An odd place to cut a corner on a grapple this expensive.  EA RESPONSE:  It sounds like something was not properly installed, concerning the valve kit, because our Wicked Grapple and WR Long valve kit include properly sized hoses for the tractor requested.

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.
