The right skid steer attachment turns one machine into an entire fleet — clearing brush, moving rock, digging trenches, tilling soil, and handling material, all with the same loader. Greatbear skid steer attachments are built for exactly this kind of heavy-duty, real-world use — heavy-gauge steel construction, universal skid steer mounting plates, and the kind of build quality that holds up through seasons of hard work on farms, job sites, and acreage properties.
This guide covers the full Greatbear attachment lineup available at Garage Gear Direct, what each one does, and how to choose the right combination for your operation.
Why the Right Attachment Changes Everything
A skid steer without the right attachments is just a loader. With the right lineup, it handles land clearing, brush cutting, rock removal, soil preparation, trenching, and material handling — tasks that would otherwise require renting multiple machines or hiring contractors. For anyone managing acreage, running a farm, or running a small construction operation, a well-equipped skid steer is one of the highest-ROI pieces of equipment you can own.
Greatbear attachments use a universal skid steer quick-attach plate compatible with most major skid steer brands — Bobcat, Case, Caterpillar, John Deere, New Holland, Kubota, and others. Swap attachments in minutes without tools.
Greatbear Land Clearing & Vegetation Attachments
Greatbear 66" Brush Cutter
The Greatbear 66" Brush Cutter is built for clearing overgrown fields, fence lines, ditches, and wooded edges. Heavy-duty rotor with hardened cutting blades handles brush, saplings, and dense vegetation that would destroy a standard mower. The 66" cutting width covers ground quickly — ideal for large acreage clearance or maintaining the edges of a property. If you're reclaiming overgrown land or maintaining cleared areas season after season, this is the attachment that gets it done.
Greatbear Skid Steer Angle Brush Cutter
The angle brush cutter adds hydraulic articulation so the cutting head pivots to follow terrain — especially useful on slopes, ditches, and uneven ground where a fixed-head cutter loses contact with the vegetation. The ability to angle the head independently of the machine means you can cut right up to fence lines, tree lines, and property boundaries without repositioning the skid steer constantly.
Greatbear Tree Puller Attachment
The Tree Puller grabs and extracts trees and stumps root-first rather than cutting them off at the base. This is a faster, cleaner approach to land clearing — especially for smaller trees and heavy brush that you want completely removed, roots and all, rather than cut and left to regrow. Works with the skid steer's existing hydraulics. Essential for anyone doing serious land clearing or site prep.
Greatbear 72" Rotary Tiller Cultivator
The 72" Rotary Tiller breaks up compacted soil, prepares seedbeds, incorporates cover crops, and works amendments into the top layer of soil. The 72" working width makes short work of large garden areas, food plots, pasture renovation, and field preparation. Hardened tines handle compacted or rocky soil without bending. If you're farming, gardening at scale, or managing a food plot, the tiller pairs naturally with the brush cutter — clear first, then till.
Greatbear Excavation & Earthmoving Attachments
Greatbear Skid Steer Trencher
The Greatbear Trencher digs precise trenches for irrigation lines, electrical conduit, drainage tile, and fence post lines. Hydraulically driven cutting chain handles clay, loam, and moderately rocky soil. Trenching by hand or with a rental unit takes all day — a skid steer-mounted trencher completes the same job in a fraction of the time with consistent depth and width. For anyone running water lines, installing fence, or improving drainage on a property, this is a high-value attachment.
Greatbear Skid Steer Auger with 3 Bits (9", 12", 18")
The Greatbear Auger comes with three bit sizes — 9", 12", and 18" — covering everything from fence posts to large tree planting holes. Hydraulic drive delivers consistent torque through the skid steer's existing hydraulic system. Three bit sizes in one package means you're equipped for fence installation, deck footings, gate posts, tree planting, and sign installation without swapping to a different unit. The 18" bit handles post holes for heavy gates and agricultural applications.
Greatbear Universal & Heavy-Duty Skid Steer Rock Bucket
The Rock Grapple Bucket handles what a standard bucket can't — loose rock, demolition debris, brush piles, and mixed material that needs to be grabbed and contained rather than just pushed. Grapple arms clamp down over the load, preventing material from spilling during transport. Available in standard and heavy-duty configurations. For anyone moving rock, clearing debris, or managing demolition material, a grapple bucket is one of the most versatile attachments in the lineup.
Greatbear 72" Skid Steer Vibratory Roller — 24" Smooth Drum Attachment
The Vibratory Roller compacts soil, gravel, and fill material for driveways, building pads, road bases, and landscaping projects. The 24" smooth drum delivers consistent compaction across the full 72" working width. If you're building or renovating a driveway, grading a building pad, or finishing a gravel road, proper compaction is what separates work that lasts from work that settles and fails. This attachment brings that capability to your skid steer.
Greatbear Self Dumping Hopper — 1 Cubic Yard
The 1 cubic yard Self Dumping Hopper is a material handling attachment that carries and dumps bulk material — grain, gravel, mulch, debris, or aggregate — precisely where you need it. Hydraulic dump mechanism releases the load without manual effort. Useful for feeding livestock, distributing materials across a job site, loading trailers, or any task that involves moving bulk materials in controlled amounts.
Greatbear Self Dumping Forklift Hopper — 1.5 Cubic Yard
The larger 1.5 cubic yard forklift hopper steps up capacity for commercial job sites, larger agricultural operations, and construction applications. Forklift-compatible pockets mean it can be moved with either a skid steer or a forklift, giving you flexibility in how and where it's used.
Greatbear Forklift Extendable Jib
The Extendable Jib converts your skid steer into a small crane — extending reach horizontally to place material, lift equipment, or position loads beyond where the bucket can reach. Adjustable extension positions give you the flexibility to work around obstacles or reach over structures. A useful addition for construction and agricultural operations that regularly need to place or retrieve material at a distance.
Greatbear Skid Steer Bedding Box
The Bedding Box is designed for livestock operations — it distributes straw, wood shavings, or other bedding material evenly across stalls, pens, and barn floors. Hydraulically controlled gate meters the flow of material as you drive through the space. If you're running a barn or livestock operation and hand-bedding stalls, this attachment eliminates one of the most time-consuming daily tasks in the operation.
Greatbear Steel Fencing & Driveway Gates
Beyond skid steer attachments, Greatbear manufactures heavy-duty steel fencing panels and driveway gates — the same heavy-gauge steel construction and practical design that defines the attachment lineup.
10x7 ft Steel Fence with 4 Rails, 30 Panels
Heavy-duty steel fence panels for livestock enclosures, property perimeters, and industrial security fencing. 4-rail construction with 30 panels in the set. Powder-coated steel resists rust and weathering. If you're fencing pasture, containing livestock, or securing a property boundary, steel panel fencing outperforms wood and wire on longevity and low maintenance.
20x8 ft Steel Dual Swing Driveway Gate
The 20-foot dual swing driveway gate is a serious entry solution for farms, ranches, commercial properties, and acreage driveways. Heavy-gauge steel frame, dual swing design opens to a full 20-foot clear width — wide enough for farm equipment, commercial trucks, and RVs. Available in 12 variants to match your property's configuration. Manual operation standard; compatible with aftermarket automatic gate opener systems.
14x8 ft Steel Dual Swing Driveway Gate
The 14-foot version covers most residential and small farm driveway applications — wide enough for trucks and tractors, compact enough for standard residential entry widths. Same heavy-gauge steel construction as the larger gate, available in 11 variants. If you're replacing a failing gate or adding entry control to a property, this is the workhorse option that installs cleanly and lasts decades with minimal maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Greatbear skid steer attachments universal?
Yes. Greatbear attachments use a universal quick-attach mounting plate compatible with most major skid steer brands including Bobcat, Case, Caterpillar, John Deere, New Holland, and Kubota. Always verify your skid steer's hydraulic flow requirements against the attachment spec sheet before ordering, particularly for high-flow attachments like brush cutters and tillers.
What is the best skid steer attachment for land clearing?
For most land clearing applications, the best starting combination is a brush cutter for standing vegetation and the rock grapple bucket for debris removal and rock. Add the tree puller for properties with significant tree and stump removal needs. The angle brush cutter is particularly useful on properties with ditches, slopes, or fence lines that require cutting at an angle.
What size auger bit do I need for fence posts?
Standard fence posts typically use a 9" or 12" auger bit. Gate posts and corner posts that carry more load typically use a 12" minimum, often 18" for heavy gates. The Greatbear auger kit includes all three sizes — 9", 12", and 18" — so you're covered for any post application without buying additional bits.
How wide should a driveway gate be?
For residential driveways with standard truck and SUV traffic, a 14-foot gate provides comfortable clearance. For farm and ranch driveways that need to accommodate tractors, combines, large trailers, or commercial trucks, a 20-foot gate is the practical minimum. Both Greatbear gate sizes are available at Garage Gear Direct in multiple height and configuration variants.
Can I use a skid steer trencher in rocky soil?
The Greatbear Trencher handles clay, loam, and moderately rocky soil effectively. In heavily rocky or compacted caliche soil, a hydraulic breaker or auger may be more effective for initial penetration before trenching. For most farm and construction trenching applications — irrigation, electrical, drainage, fence line — the trencher attachment handles the work efficiently.
