I picked this up over the weekend, at a stash of Model T, Model A and '20s Chevy parts. I thought it was an axle nut wrench, but there were a couple Ford banjos there, and it didn't fit the nut on them. It is 1 1/8-inches across the flats, which was bigger than the axle nut. Anyone know what it fits? Its steel, has no markings, and doesn't appear to have ever been hit on the ends. -Brad
It's the dogbone from a drum puller. The puller has three legs that fit over the wheel studs, three lug nuts go on, you run the forcing screw down against the axle end, put the dogbone over the hex on the end of the forcing screw and bonk the end of the bone with a hammer in a clockwise direction and it separates the hub from the axleshaft. See? Good for old two-piece semi-floating axles like the Jeep and IHC used to use. Shawn
