Title: I don't know if I had these on here before?
Post by: oldgoaly on August 02, 2016, 07:50:34 AM

It will be easier to guess if I did post these before (I did a search nothing showed) I moved them yesterday and hmmm took pics. 
So what do you think they are? I'm getting better inside read stick rule for reference and a even background.

I have the same tool hanging on my display board.
I thought I posted it here a few years ago.
I believe it's to pull a retainer from a shaft. The jaws on mine are tapered to fit close.
I think it's for a specific purpose because it has the wrench punched in the handle.
Probably a production tool?
I haven't seen another until your photo.

I have it as a auto service specialty tool. (don't want to give it away)

to me, it looks like a battery cable lifter.

what size is the wrench ?  same as a battery cable nut ?

just my 2 cent guess.

Battery terminal puller?  What size is the wrench in the handle?  The shape of the arms is a lot like battery terminal pullers.

Ha , way to obvious! I.ve pulled many battery cables , but I guess I was over thinking this one.
Thanks for the ID
It's a service tool , not a production tool.
Would be nice to know the maker , they weren't proud enough to put their name on it.

I will have to look at them, no "big letters"  but might be a logo or makers' mark?
