Chain Hook Post Pulling Idea

Chain Hook Post Pulling Idea FENCING Miscellaneous I got this post-pulling idea from an article I saw in a previous issue of FARM SHOW It’s a simple idea but it works a lot better than just wrapping a chain around a post because it won’t slip off I welded a chain hook onto an 8-in long pipe with threaded ends I also ran a bolt through one end of a chain to keep the chain from pulling all the way through the pipe To pull a post I hook one end of the chain to the loader bucket I wrap the other end around the post and attach it to the hook on the pipe As I raise the loader the chain pulls through the pipe and tightens up once the bolt reaches the end of the pipe The threaded ends of the pipe dig into the post and help keep the pipe from slipping It only takes about 15 sec to pull the post up out of the ground This idea also works great to pull small trees and brush Roger Ezell 15495 Robert Ezell Rd Perry Fla 32348 ph 850 578-2135; rezell@fairpoint net
