    That farm jack turned out to be very handy.

    I learned some good techniques here thanks. One other approach ..I had strong concrete, 4"x4" post rotten, and no jacks .. I used a long drill / arbor to drill some holes down into the old post, and was able to hoist it out. I then used the same concrete base for a replacement post. Now 20+ years on I need to replace the posts again. Might try your techniques. (Or might pay for workers to do it!)

    Wrap chain around post few times and pull up with jack in 1st method. In 3rd method drill hole, put concrete bolt inside and pull up with jack. Thank you. Good video !

      That work for me and way cheaper/cleaner that getting jack hammer.

      That depends on the concrete. Mine was so brittle that concrete bolts just wouldnt stay put - jack was pulling them out. And yet the concrete wasnt brittle enough to easily break it up… so i went with a jack hammer :)

    Good vid. Personally I would have used a ratchet tie down straps to wrap around it and tighten it on your last bit of rotten post & then jack it up with the jack or lift it up strapped to a 2x4 with a leveraged angle.

    What about concrete four feet down to the frostline in the Northwest?

    I have a broken off and rotted post that has the cement base poured 12'" below surface grade and 3 feet deep.
    I am dealing with reaching down 4 feet to hit the bottom of the cement block..
    Additionally, this is a repair, so I have an existing fence above me and neighbors who do not want their ash fault disturbed on their side.
    Suggestions?

    • @TexasOrganicGardening

      Wow, that’s a serious job to tackle. What state are you in that requires that kind of pour?

    my friend watched this video and thought it would work for him.... but it didn't because his post was concreted in by 24 inch wide concrete 16 inches deep, about 160 pounds of concrete. I went over and took an 8 ft 4x4 and used it as a second class lever with the farm jack(after digging out a foot of soil off the top) and broke it loose and lifted it out of the ground.

    Jesus, all that effort. I just use a digging bar to loosen the earth wherever you want the post to lean. Then shovel the dirt down at an angle, break more earth and shovel some more. 15 minutes later the post is laying about 45°. Then with a double hitch I tie the pole to my lower waist and using my legs, I simply drag the post up and out. I'm not all that strong but the leverage is there. Then if I dig down to 30" total, I can resets a treated wood post that has been treated further with roofing tar so as long as it's above the water line. It can never rot. Then I toss back in a half shovel of dirt and back the post around until it's centered and level, toss in half shovel of postal cement while rechecking the level, dirt, cement, now a little water will using the bar to help mix it by making holes. Then pack it with a 4X4. and keep going until there is a slight mount above the waterline. This insures water wont stand near the post.

      In my area we have so much stone in the ground or large limestone deposits close to the surface digging a hole or digging a post out can be much more difficult that you’d think. Pro installers often bring an air powered jackhammer for new fence installs. It would be nice to live somewhere that just had normal soil 🤠
