[QUOTE="cantoo, post: 5218571, member: 1808"] My tire width is also 6'and that's why I went that wide even though guys told me not to. It's just too wide to maneuver in the bush. Picking stuff up was a pain because you have to be parallel with the log to get the tines under it, end up having to push against something to grab it. Even unloading off my trailer was a hassle. There are some guys with single tine grapples on 2 lifting prongs and they look to work good. Might be worth it for you to rent or borrow one before you commit to building one. I also have a stone fork with a grapple and it doesn't work worth a crap either. Might be fine on concrete with something to push against but not on open dirt. [ATTACH=full]404587[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
