So I bought a Universal-metal-prods 11" auto adjustable wrench With 41-w-448 on the upper end of the wrench does anyone know what the
41-w-448 mean?
It's the US Government Stock Number. Wrench was included in tool kits for the Willys Jeep.

+1 on what Bus said.
I have the 41-W-450 made by Universal Products. It's a honkin' big one!! I think it was for the larger military equipment, like the deuce and a half, etc.
so Would it be used in WW2 or earlier/later?
