45″ JD Compact Electric Grapple
John Deere Fit
Finally, A Grapple Made Specifically FOR John Deere Compact Tractors
Been wanting a grapple for your John Deere but worried about:
- ❌ Adding weight that’ll damage your compact tractor?
- ❌ Needing expensive third-function hydraulics?
- ❌ Finding something that actually fits JD standard buckets perfectly?
Here’s why hundreds of John Deere owners finally said “yes”…
“I have been looking into grapples for my little 1025r for a couple of years now and was very hesitant about: 1) adding a third function, and 2) adding weight. So, I went with the 45″ grapple… Thus far I have worked it hard and it has done its job, and done it well.” – Christopher, Texas
