I received the grapple and it appears to be a very rugged and well built piece of equiptment. I have not been able to use it yet because I cannot connect the hydrolic lines to my Bobcat skid steer. The upper female connector is contacted by the upper jaw of the grapple and damaged the coupler that came on the grapple. I have tried unsucessfully to get some help with this matter. I was contacted once by Titan but refused the call before I realized that it was a call from Titan. I was promised another call which I still have not received. Until I can use this grapple I cannot comment on it's performance. I hope I can get a call as I have been waiting about two weeks to use this. Len 517 290 2728
