You may have read my "new tool chest" thread, I found a few thing that I am not sure of...
Let me know what you think!

the second pic is a tie rod adjusting sleeve turner. the fourth pic is the rod that goes in the front of a brake booster, between the booster and master cylinder (not actually a tool).

3rd picture the tool is to turn the flywheel
i think the first picture is a water tool

IIRC the first one is for air brake treddle valves
second is tie rod adjusting sleeve turner
third is a clutch adjuster (check at OTC tools )
4th is a push rod between booster and master
5th looks like some form of injector socket

any ideas Andy?

Gees Jerry, all those tools and you don't know what they are

. I think you should just load them up and drop them off at my house. I promise I'll take good care of them

I'm pretty sure #3 is a front end alignment tool. It's been a long time since I wrenched for a living, but I know I had a pair of these. The pin went into a hole in the frame and the hooks were to push/pull the upper control arm shaft to adjust camber and caster. If I remember correctly, it was used on Fords??

glock35ipsc · 05-14-2009, 11:39 AM

No wait, it was for Chryslers and some GM's. It's been awhile, but it is definitely an alignment tool.

That was my guess.

Couldn't tell you if it was for F@#d, GM or Chrysler.

68C15 · 05-15-2009, 05:41 AM

Glock, you are right and I was wrong. but for the life of me I can't come up with the exact applications though.

glock35ipsc · 05-15-2009, 04:20 PM

The more I thought about it yesterday, I am pretty sure I used it on Chrysler products more than anything.

BarryB · 05-15-2009, 06:07 PM

The first tool is used for sink, tub drains,and other plumbing needs, the last pic, is for plumbing also. used for tightening the nuts that hold the faucets to the sink.

68C15 · 05-15-2009, 06:52 PM

I was looking at it in my OTC catalog today but I'll be darned if I can find it online. of course I forgot to get the tool #.
