[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1581476, member: 18945"] I did this just last week on a gateway down 150' from the river. I put that gate in in 2016..one of the new type of PT. Rotted off right below ground. I just dug down with manual diggers pryed it over a bit and hooked the chain on it like you said and pulled it out...made a sucking sound as it came out so I knew it would be wet down there. I have pulled them out with a chain and track jack but this one I could get the tractor to. Hit water 3' down as I put one of my old creosote powerline posts in it's place...water and lots and lots of it. Clay on top couple 3 feet and water bearing sand for a long way below that. I have some old corners and ends in the same area with crossties and sawed power poles that have been there and still holding fence since 1964-1965 and seen more floods than I can count. They just don't make good stuff anymore. [/QUOTE]
