Estate sale finds and what is this tool question

Could it be a hucab tool on one end and a valve stem puller on the other?

 

I hope this guys is making a joke....Dental tools?????

 

I've been staring at the odd tool for a while now. With the pivoting foot and a
whole for a pry bar. I think it might be a bearing race puller. Or meant to remove
something internal.

 

It would be pretty formal tool for this purpose but could it be used to removed the wheel bearing dust cap?

 

No Way - I'm as serious as can be !
Almost as serious as you

 

Could the wavy end of the mystry tool be used for separating the split rings, so you could remove them. The toll I have is more like a tire iron, but with a notch, but they came in varying shapes and sizes

 

If my dentist ever tries to use a hub puller or brake spring pliers in my mouth, I'm changing dentists.

 

Hey i was wondering if your would want too loan that puller out for a price or sell it because im currently trying too replace shoes and brake cylinders on my 51 cranbrook and these candy *** pullers from o'rileys are not cutting it

 

petritl, Do we get three tries for a dollar ???

When you do a brake job, could it be used to collapse the new shoes into
the slave cylinder, for ***embly? Could you measure the distance
between the contact points for us. Thanks...

 

I have a 62 Chrysler and I had to borrow a drum remover for it already so I don't really want to sell it. Post a request to borrow a puller , I bet there is some near you that has one to borrow. If you don't get a reply I will loan you this one for the price of mailing it but I would like it back in a timely manner.

I guess that it is time for me to call for the Snap On guy for new tools as I have most of them in my own tool box!

I'm glad that you diden't identify the previous owner as a "real old machinic"

 

Dental tools have been around long before car repair tools. Long before anyone ever thought of a car there were dental tools. They were some of the first precision tools fashioned.

Some old time mechanic said ," boy if I had a set of those molar pullers the dentist uses, I bet I could ....."

 

I stopped by my neighbors place, a retired gentleman who is into Ford A and Ts, then pictures to my dad, who has been into cars and tractors for as long as I can remember. No Luck, neither of them knew what this tool is for.

 

That is for pressure checking a radiator I believe. Fill it stick that ****** on the filler and block off the outlets. Then pump it up and see if water comes out anywhere.

 

"I hope this guys is making a joke....Dental tools????? "
You didn't recognize his screen name? He IS your own dentist, after all!

 

I am gonna go out on a limb here and say that tool is for stretching tires. Open the tire bead to bead so that you can make repairs to the inner walls. Just a guess.

 

Sweet ! Can we all buy tickets to come and watch while you put 200PSI in
your Radiator !

It's a push in type Compression tester , missing the rubber cone ( As stated in an earlier post ) . Cones are possibly still available .

 

I spotted one like this today on ebay and it's a Mopar tire tool.

Now theres a keeper. I can't tell you how having the right tool for the job it a life saver. Try doing rear drums on a '53 Desoto with out one of those.

 

It's been a while since I looked at this thread, thank you very much for finding the eBay tool, it is the same thing.

 

I have the exact same gauge hanging on the wall in the shop. And once again Thanks for saying this mechanic was Really Old !!! >>>>.

 

I cant p*** an estate sale either. I got a bunch of "little books" and some old Stewart Warner guages for next to nothing.
