For clearing brush and grabbing piles of pliable debris, it's an outstanding tool. ETA: I use mine on a Kubota B2650. |

If you ever think you'll need to pick up something heavy, choose a smaller grapple. For every lb of grapple = one lb. less of FEL lift. For big tractors, this is less of a concern. The smaller the tractor, the bigger the issue. Your L3901 has the LA525 FEL so that means you have about 1200 lbs to play with.
I originally wanted a 60" grapple; when I got to the supplier however (Skid Steer Attachment Depot, Hsv), they were out of 60's and only had 48", 72" and 84". I knew I didn't want the 72" (weight) so I got the 48". It also helped that it was on sale for $700 or so. It will lift and move heavy loads like this:  But also brush and misc stuff as well. This is from a Red Oak that fell on my property a month or so ago. That brush pile is probably double that size now. Every bit of it was picked up by the tractor and moved to the pile. So the 48" is just fine for handling brush as well.  The bottom line: In the over five years I've owned this grapple, I have never regretted it's 48" width. There's been tons of times where it wouldn't have worked - at all - if it had been any wider and heavier. At the time, I really really wanted the EA Wicked, but it was over three times the cost and I couldn't justify it. BTW, if you do decide on the EA Wicked and order now, you should have it by next spring.  Good luck! |

Does it look to be pretty decently welded? Have you had any issues with tines bending or welds breaking? |

I have an L3800 and an MTL grapple on her.
I use it beyond the tractors capability  regularly (moved literally tons of rock and veritable mountains of trees and brush)The grapple seems to be indestructible. It's bit heavier than EA's lightest, but it is stout. https://www.mtlattachments.com/attachments/mtl-48-skid-steer-root-grapple-bucket-attachment ETA: it even does dainty work... like taking the trash cans down the drive   |

I bought this recently, works great as a grapple but also digging out stumps and rocks. It being in the center I don't worry about it tweaking the loader as much either. I have it on a JD 5300.

I have an Armstrong that I bought with the tractor from the kubota dealer. I’ve beat on it pretty good. It’s TOUGH. It handles brush, trees, and rocks well. Back dragging with the top times down make great seed rows too..

You have approx 1000 lbs of lift use it wisely.
The ea wicked 55 is 238lbs wet. It's more expensive but it's stout and my L2501 can't break it. |

I do not want to wait the 6 months lead time for the EA grapple. Now that I've seen what's out there for less (sometimes half) the price I think I'm looking another direction. The suggestion to get a 48 inch grapple instead of 60 or 72 has changed my direction entirely. The lower weight and tighter maneuverability has swayed me. I'm looking very hard at MTL and Skid Steer Attachment Depot. They seem to sell the same grapple with different stickers for about the same price. I'm going to call both today to confirm shipping to my door. Once again, ARF.com has been a huge help. Thank you!! |

I'm new to tractoring (tractor is still on order, actually), but did a bunch of grapple research recently so thought I'd share my learnings and decision if it helps...
I have an L4701 on order. Looked hard at EA (everyone seems to love them, other than the wait times). I decided I didn't want to wait that long, and also don't expect to need something as burly as they make...considered the Land Pride grapples as well. Similar to mentioned here, I went with a smaller grapple (55") over the wider for weight considerations, and it's cheaper -- the tine width may also change based on grapple width (it did on mine, as the 55" and 60" versions have the same # of tines). Based on all I've read, it will do all that I need, and make the tractor more nimble with it on while working in the woods. I ordered the pinnacle root grapple from Homestead Implements. If they hit their expected ship date, it will be about 8 weeks from order to delivery. A bit cheaper than EA, and I like that it can stand up on its own for storage. It's 302 lbs, so heavier than the EA, but still a lot lighter than many of the options out there. Obviously I don't have it/haven't used it yet, so we'll see how my decision turned out, but thought I'd share/throw another option out there to look at. |

I ordered a 48" single cyl. grapple from MTL and a set of pallet forks. The grapple is the same one pictured above holding a tree trunk. I also ordered a third function kit from Summit Hydraulics. I ended up with MTL because shipping was lower than Skid Steer Attachments. Their products appear to be the same thing with a different sticker on top.
We'll see what arrives next week... |

Always a trade off. I would add that if OP is going to use his grapple in the woods for any kind of log moving get one that can grab the log by the end in addition to by the side. I have seen some grapple that have one top jaw and 2 bottom jaws that prevent grabbing by the end. |

 I have blue diamond for my skidloader. I feel they’re lightly built. Fortunately I don’t have to use them much besides moving logs around from point to point. If I had to use them for root raking or such, I feel even on a 60hp skidloader I’d bend them. Certainly would feel better in a 50hp tractor.  Mast grapple bucket. This thing is built like a damn tank. TN60A with wheel weights (200lbs a side) and about a 800lb ballast box behind it, even then a full scoop plus the bucket will take the back tires off the ground. |

Having weight at and behind the rear wheels of FEL-tractor simply cannot be overstated. As I've often stated over on TBN (before they kicked me off, LGB!): If your 3ph can lift your FEL counterweight - it's not heavy enough. Tongue in cheek obviously, but hopefully gets the point across. |

Tongue in cheek obviously, but hopefully gets the point across. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: [snip] Mast grapple bucket. This thing is built like a damn tank. TN60A with wheel weights (200lbs a side) and about a 800lb ballast box behind it, even then a full scoop plus the bucket will take the back tires off the ground. Having weight at and behind the rear wheels of FEL-tractor simply cannot be overstated. As I've often stated over on TBN (before they kicked me off, LGB!): If your 3ph can lift your FEL counterweight - it's not heavy enough. Tongue in cheek obviously, but hopefully gets the point across. We dedicated that tractor to moving manure now. So it’s going to get loaded tires on top of the wheel weights and counter weight. We could certainly use a bigger weight box. It’s just a tiny pallet forks.com class 2 box. The 3pt hitch can lift over 1500lbs. But between wheel weights, the counter weight and loaded tires, we’ll max out the lifting capacity of the tractor before anything else. We’re basically right there anyways. |

I have an EE on my Kubota B2601. It's awesome. They save lot's of time and body aches.
