    I drilled a whole put a bolt in and had it stick out 2'' and used an old car bumper jack no readjusting it has a 4' line of travel .
    still it's good to see people using their brain and people will thank you because they would never think of doing that, People think they have
    to pay an expert but they don't and you just showed why good job.

One end of the bolt will be long enough to go be placed onto the Jack. If that doesn't work then a chain will be attached to the bolt ends for the lever method.

    • @paulk5311
      @paulk5311 Před 5 lety

      yeah foam is more expensive and does not have the strength of concrete so if you are setting posts for a fence that will get pushed by wind the foam is not good. i have seen pics of fences like that set in foam and the whole fence is leaning badly due to the foam giving under side load pressure from the wind.

    Really wanted this to work... Tried this with my car's scissor jack, but unfortunately my post wouldn't budge. Glad I went slowly during the jacking process because I noticed my scissor jack was starting to deform. At that point I ended up backing off entirely to now take a different route -- maybe a bottle jack. So please be aware of this because it could damage or ruin your car's scissor jack. The difference in my situation may be that it appears that the post concrete has adhered to the limestone bed that underrides my lawn by about a foot. In other words, my post concrete may be harder to pull out than most that are entirely sunk in dirt.
