If its a wood post you are lifting, why wouldn't you just drive a couple of
heavy nails in each side with an inch or so exposed. With a metal post, all you
need to do is wrap a chain or rope rightly around the post three or four times
and use the jack to lift the rope/chain up. The process is the same for both.
