Ok guys I've got 10-12 ol T posts in a little spot I may plant next year. I need them out. I've got a front end loader too. I've had people tell me to wrap a chain around the post, but it seems like it would just slip when pulling upwards. Some of y'all have experience I'm sure...

double wrap the chain around the post and ease up with the bucket, they should come right out.

Wrap the Cain around the post a couple of times and pick up with the loader.

Pushem over or dig em up. I like your style Hollywud. I've pushed them over and broken them off before, but I'm afraid they'd have their revenge next fall when I till that area up.

I use a strap choked low on the post. Loader fetches them right out.

There is a T-post puller you can buy from the co-op.

Get down low enough and push. If they break off dig it up and fill in hole. Beats getting on and off on and off.

Don't mean to side track but if your installing T-posts can it be done with a tractor? I've used spring loaded drivers but always wondered if there was an easier, faster way.

take the driver on the ground upside down and lean it against the post as you push the post away from the driver, hook lip of driver under a stud and pulll the post back towards you. It will come right up, may have to do it twice to get it out.

Pulling a dozen takes no time with a strap and loader. We do this every year removing posts used as part of a framework for green beans in the garden. Put the wife on the tractor, pull a post, remove the strap, throw the post in the bucket, move to next post and repeat.
Regarding driving posts with a tractor, I've seen folks take a piece of pipe, weld a cap on one end, then weld it on the back side of their bucket. They then use it to push the post in the ground. I've never tried it. I don't drive enough posts in a year to fool with it.
