OK, I did a search for this question and I am sure there is a reference to it but just couldn't find it. Here goes: what has been the best device to use at end of a push bar? I have seen a few things that look good but I hope to hear from actual users.

The best thing that I have found that can take the abuse is steel wheels from a floor jack--build the push bar hell for stout in my opinion mine is 1 3/4" .134 wall tubing that fits inside of 2 inch tubing with a 2"collar on the 1 3/4"part that I can remove that has the wheel---shied the bolt so that the chute & lines can't foul on the wheel axle bolt--- :roll: yeah I know

I just have a push bar. No moving parts. Works great.
