Technical Identify Mystery Parts

I cleaned out a guy's barn recently and have these two mystery parts that I'm hoping someone could identify. He was into Model Ts and tri-five Chevys but had a little bit of everything. I was there for the Model T stuff. Is this Chevy?

They're marked G101-L and G101-R.

 

I would guess a suspension part for a heavy truck.

 

or a road grader....but not a T or a 55, that's for sure

 

One is right the other is left……that’s all I got! Lol

Or it’s a mirror image. Then again, why is left the right and right the left when looking in a mirror?

 

Johnson rods

 

How about a straight on shot so we can see what the writing says, and maybe a dollar bill for size compare

 

Look sorta like farm tractor lift arms for a three point hitch.

 

Judging from the size o the gravel in the pictures, these things are maybe a foot long? Too short for a three point hitch and no place for implement attachment at the end, which looks though, to be adjustable. When we find out, I am guessing 1950's.

 

As in steam locomotive ???

 

Here is a bigger image of the writing .

I know what they are! For the front axle of a farm tractor. They had a conversion kit to convert from the 3 wheeled look to the 4 wheel row crop style axle. Farmall, Massey Ferguson, John Deere, Oliver, Coop, Cockshut, Case or one of the other million brands or offshoots. Look up the logo, might be for Case/Harvester.

 

No, as in Seinfeld.

.

 

Looks like the logo for International Harvester.

 

I think we have a winner!

 

muffler hangers.....

 

Not quite it, but if you look at the front end, you'll see similar brackets

 

Told y’all!

 

It's missing the I in IHC, though.

I'm not seeing it. Looks like normal steering arms to me.

...

I'm now leaning more towards Chevy, but not necessarily tri-five. Look at the CH logo cast into this guys Chevy transmission.

Maybe try the “yesterdays tractors” site for a logo ID. Years ago, many tractor companies joined up, split up, etc.

 

They look like they could be for a chain drive truck or possibly Model T car to chain drive truck conversion. Used to keep the chain tension.

 

Here it is on a T conversion. If you decide to part with the pieces I'd be interested.

 

@Nathan_1929 here's the image of the logo from the transmission you mentioned above. Sure does look like the same one with a little extra circle around it.

 

Hot diggity damn, now we're talking!

 

There is a neat trick they used to do back in the old days with chain drive trucks. When they were loaded , they pulled with both wheels with a huge gear reduction! After they unloaded and had a ways to go, they would break the chain on one side and drape it over a stationary sprocket bolted to the frame and force the power through the spider gears and double their speed back to get another load. Look closely on original chain drive trucks and you will see the extra sprocket!
