Cool Alternate + Cheaper Suggestion...

I mentioned a "farm jack" here back in 2007.



Since then, I've actually enjoyed the farm jack s-o-o-o much, now I own three of 'em!

In 2007, I used one to simultaneously lift the dock and push the piling back under a supporting 6X8 cross member. (Winter ice floes caused three pilings to slip off their supports).



With a 3˝-ton capacity—and at $49 from Harbor Freight—you can still have it handy when you need to move anything-else that's big.
