Grapple bucket build

Hi All,

I'm thinking about building a grapple attachment to help me clear some brush on my land, I wanted to go with an electric powered hydro cylinder to operate it. I saw this guy on you-tube made this and bought the cylinder somewhere he doesn't say, it came with a wiring harness a small control lever, basically ready to install and wire up. I looked all over the web, tractor stores and cant seem to find what im looking for any ideas?
 
I DID FIND A LINEAR ACTUATOR THAT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD ABOUT 200.00 AND IT SAYS 1000LB PUSH 800LB LIFT ? THATS MORE THEN ENOUGH AND I CAN WIRE THAT RIGHT TO THE BATTERY AND RUN CONTROLS TO THE DRIVERS SEAT?
 
I had a bale grapple on the bucket of my 970 before I switched to forks.
I ran the cylinder with a 12 volt over hydraulic powerpack that I had sitting around. It needs to be a power up and power down style power pack.
Simple three position momentary toggle switch to control it.
Not super fast but good enough to get the job done.
