A jig member projects from the lower end of the elongated bar, the jig member being adapted to extend through an opening provided in the upper end of the sheet pile, and the jig member including a first leg portion extending transversely to the elongated bar through the opening and a second leg portion perpendicular to the first leg portion and adapted to extend downwardly and to be positioned adjacent the side of the sheet pile opposite that engaged by the elongated bar. A latch member is provided for selectively restraining the elongated bar against the sheet pile. The latch member includes an arm pivotally joined to the elongated bar intermediate its opposite ends for movement between a first position and a restraining position. One end of the arm is adapted to extend over the upper end of the sheet pile when the latch member is in the restraining position, and a leg member is secured to that one end of the arm and is adapted to engage the opposite side of the sheet pile.
