      Location: Southern New Mexico | I have. It worked really well but keep a piece a 2x6 on hand if working in sandy or damp soil. The foot will sink a bit. |

   Location: Le Claire IA | That's good to know they work. Do you know which one you used? I've seen several different ones on the internet and don't know which to buy.
Thanks! |

      Location: Southern New Mexico | I don't know what brand it was. It belonged to my neighbour. I thought it was really cool, it almost looked like the old bumper jacks. I also saw someone use one at a trailride. They used t posts for their electric fence and had one to pull the posts back up. |

   Location: Le Claire IA | I had thought about an old car jack but they do cost just as much as T-Post jack. Actually more!
Thanks! |

  Location: Claxton, Ga. | I just used the frontend loader of my tractor to take some T-post out of the ground. Lowered bucket, strapped a cargo around the t-post, and pulled it right out of the ground. |

| To remove t-post put your driver top side down in front of the post. Push top of post away from driver and hook one of the knobs of the post on the drivers bottom edge(which is facing up). pull top of post towards driver. This will lift the post out of the ground one knob at a time until lose enough to pull by hand. You only need one tool. A lot easier than hauling and setting up a jack. |
