We did it with galvanized posts (2" dia). First dig a hole at least 1 ft deep right next to the fence, pour in quick crete (available in Home Depot or Lowe's), push the galvanized post in and let dry. Repeat about 8-10 ft apart. If you want it to be stronger, add a line of horizontal posts across. You may then want to cap the top of the vertical posts.

Depends on the looks you need.
The easiest thing is to pound a steel t-post next to it and wire it to the leaning fence post.
You can also pile up rocks around it.
Good luck.

What you want and what is needed are two different things. Pay the 800 dollars and get someone in to fix your problem. Eagle.

If you don't want to take them out, then all you can do is drive some wooden wedges down right beside them on all sides.

that is the only way, as termites and rot ruin the wood, use tar on the new post
