What owners say about ITC RK25 gear

★★★★★
Must have for me! Highly recommend it!!

So I have a lot of woods and use a grapple, after pushing in part of the grill with a branch I needed some protection. This fits perfect, my grill guard bar on the tractor has a bend in it and this come as a flat piece with the tabs bent 90 degrees. I aligned the top, held in place with clamp and drilled and installed the top two bolts. Then left the clamps on the top and, used another set of clamps to pull the guard into place. Fits Great and provides great protection, its already saved me from some branches through the grill.

A must have!

So I order this to protect the front of the tractor since I have a lot of woods and was planning on clear some of it. I bought it and had it sitting in the box one day while I was out working and sure enough I got a branch through my grill. Needless to say I quickly put on the grill guard after that and I have had some think trees and branches pushing against it as I am adding stuff to the burn pile. This guard is fantastic and a must buy in my opinion if you plan to use a grapple!

Love this Brush Guard!

It took me about 15 minutes to put this brush guard on. Super easy to install, and very well built. I have the brush guard on my T574 also and it has paid for itself many times over by saving my grill and hood from brush when I am doing grapple work. Gary is great to deal with, and makes great quality products. Highly recommended!
