    Pintle Hook/BMG Grapple

    Al, The pin is actually 1/2", my mistake.

    Pintle Hook/BMG Grapple

    Probably not crazy amounts of use, but enough to have it around. Like today I brought the chipper to the brush pile, and angled it precisely unlike being limited with the truck. A good tool to have IMO.

    Pintle Hook/BMG Grapple

    It'll take a load to break that 1/4" pin, or even bend it. It's just taking the tongue weight, and I think something else would bust before hand.

    Pintle Hook/BMG Grapple

    I finally got it done. Total cost, under $60. This is superior to a separate mount IMO considering it goes on and off in 2.5 seconds without disconnecting anything, plus it's light as a feather. I used it this morning and I recommend it to any mini owner.

I have a ball mounted on the BMG and for now the ring just rests on top because it doesn't go all the...

    Pintle Hook/BMG Grapple

    I need ideas on how to fabricate a slide in pintle hitch compatible with the BMG grapple. I was going to buy another plate with a receiver on it, but I don't want to have to take the grapple on and off, on and off, just to move the chipper around site. As I understand, the BMG rake slides...
