New member here, and am hoping to learn what this tool is here. Acquired in a boxful of items at a recent auction. First pic is a tag attached to the tool...second pic the tool itself. No markings anywhere, but it's a greasing tool of sorts. KIMG0842.JPGKIMG0839.JPG

Welcome to the VFF!
Wow! Super cool tool.
I'm scratching my head on this one...first glance, I thought it was for leaf springs, but I don't think so now after closer examination.
I'll sit back and watch this one and learn with you.. Jeff

Looking at Google images of a spring shackle leads me to agree it's for hooking onto and greasing said piece. Looking at this pic you'll see the hook that would hold the tool into place for greasing. KIMG0843.JPG

. Ok! I can picture that.
That hook reaches the back of the shackle and the 2 bolt heads cover the old style grease fittings. Can be individually tightened up and grease forced in by the modern fitting.

Seems like a little overkill, If you had to force grease in with this tool wouldn't you be forcing dirt and gunk into the shackle, wouldn't it be time to remove and clean or replace the fittings. Henry gave us a cute little grease gun to use for this.

Welcome to the VFF, I have to go along with Jeff, I thought it might be some kind of puller but now not sure, gonna wait and find out from the experts , whatever it is I am sure some guy on here owns 1 or 2 of them.“If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.” (Will Rogers).

Here is a handy tapping tool for 6-32, 8-32, and 10-24 threads. I've had this for years, but don't recall where I bought it. The name appears to be EfCor U.S.A. 915-75, but the f is small and squeezed in, so it's hard to make out. I use this mostly for tapping the holes in the heat sinks for the EVR's I make.
