T post removal

[drajj5]

So, I need to hear some tips tricks to puling t post out of the ground. These have been set for years, they are the heavy gauge with (nubs on one side). I "don't" own the high dollar T Post puller, and use the wife and a bucket curl to extract the pesky suckers. I just know that there is someone who has a fantastic and easier way to do this.... So who has that trick ?

I used to use a fabricated device. Mostly it's a chain wrapped around the post, and a stand the right height to pry the chain and the post out. It always worked.

A couple of years ago, I decided to buy an actual "T post puller". It's faster, and easy to use.

Search Amazon, or E-bay for examples. $50-$90

Do a search here, there was a lot of previous posts on this subject. Me, I use chain and wife on tractor also. Fast and easy.

what I did do though is I made a small loop with some insulated steel cable. I slip that over post and then use hook on chain to grab loop. As wife raises bucket, loop catches nub and pulls out post.

Tractor with boom pole or bucket and a few half hitches and it will grab and pull it out

Chain and either the tractor bucket or the hi-lift jack off the jeep

I also just use chain and the fel. 3 or so wraps around, then hang the hook on the working end of the chain and it binds up nicely.

A piece of square tubing bolted to the side of your bucket slide it over the post tilt bucket back lift up and out

chain wrapped works really well...when you have the other end attached to a shackle on a FEL.

This. Works well and is fast.

I use a chain with one wrap around the post, then wrapped around the rear blade on my 3ph.
