fence post puller

Postby canamscott » Tue Mar 07, 2006 2:19 pm

I have seen fence post pullers in the Harbor Freight catalog. Does anyone have a simple plan for rigging up a puller? Bonus points if I can use the Cub to do it.

I just back up to the post, wrap a chain around it, hook that closely to my fast-hitch, and let the hydraulics do the work. Sometimes it takes two or three lifts, but each time you lower the hitch, the slack in the chain allows it to drop lower on the post, and you lift again!

I bought one last yr at tractor supply that is made much more rugged than the harbor freight one. Of coarse its more money also. But I'll tell you it works so well and so fast I could have 6 posts out in less time than you could get the tractor moved to the next. Maybe if you only pulled one here or there but if I were pulling out a whole row I wouldn't even mess with the tractor. Last week I was pulling some out of a wooded fence row where I wouldn't been able to get the tractor near enough anyhow.
