All acquired in auction lots.  They are not what I bid on, but would like to know what they are before I pass them on.  I believe the shiny clamp is a broken leaf spring spreader.

small chrome plated tool might be a spring spreader for greasing leafs,but damaged??

Agree with the leaf spreader clamp, 3rd pic is a hub puller missing 3 or 4 arms that have bolt holes.

Hello, Could the tool in the 2nd photo be used as some form of press? Regards, Lou

 I also agree with leaf spring spreader, it looks like one of mine, yours might have a whole on each end that would hold a tapered upside down
"V" that would spread the leave to clean and oiled as the older autos would pick up road dust. then some companies would put burlap over part of the spring to help keep it clean and sqeeky free.  then came more paved roads that help stop the dust.

The second pic depending on it's size is looking to me like a generator / starter  tester mounting bracket. One of those that use a electric motor to drive a generator or starter so different test could be done. Missing is the spacer for different diameter units.

The threaded shaft with the round disc is part of a automotive wheel puller.  It is missing its three arms which are bolted to the brake drum with the lug bolts/nuts.
