I hope this is the right spot: Fence Chat For Dummies, does anyone have a good quickish method of getting the old 4x4 out of the ground? I am almost positive that the old posts (20 years old) are not cemented. A co-worker said using car jacks on the 4x4's can get them to come out but I wanted to get a second opinion.

Battered Cankles posted:I just pulled some old posts out of 30 inches of clay. I dug until I could wiggle a 1/2 inch gap, then filled the gap with water. One more wiggle and they came right out. I tried the digging approach on 30 ft of fencing and it took far to long with my soil type and the 3 foot hole they were in. I have another 50 posts i have to pull and would like to get it down to like 30 minutes to pull and auger a new hole, so hand digging will be a last resort. I am going to try the double car jack method this weekend on a test post and see how it works. Will report back with results.
