Anybody added one themselves? How aggrevating was it? Looking back would you have just hired it done? Cost?

There’s a website called www.3rd function.com or something that sells kits w installation instructions for most smaller tractors. I bought a grapple from the attachment depot in Huntsville and installed my own kit in an hr on my mahindra 1533 I have $1,900 all in.

The ones I did where 45 and a 65hp John Deere they will make a kit for your model and send you instructions to put it on. I use my grapple all the time also have a lane shark cutter for front to keep roads trimmed. How do you like the lane shark? I’ve seen it advertised but don’t know anyone that owns one.

I like it it beats running a pole saw all day but it’s not a real fast process. Haven’t used it with my new tractor yet had a 45hp and it was on the edge of not having enough flow new one should be a little better. But unless you have a lot to do with one it’s a lot of money to just sit most of the time.

W.R Long have been making 3rd function kits for a while. I added the WR Long 3rd function to my Mahindra and it was no problem. You can buy tractor specific kits that come with everything, including the hoses. Mine was $900. It’s usually between $1200-$1800 to have a dealer install it.

Even the Kubota dealer said they put WR Long kits on instead of the ones offered by the factory. I talked to a Massey dealer last week, who said the same thing.
