Name that tool! - Page 2

The dial indicator can be used for a number of things, but is often used in conjunction with the mag base/pointer to accurately find TDC when setting up a camshaft's timing.

I agree with Defector regarding the brake tool (E). It's for the spring cup.

"B" might be a clutch disc pilot tool (pic too small to tell).

dont be surprised if he gives you a bunch more old and unusual stuff. I or my good friend both have most of this kind of stuff, ALL of it between the two of us.

Yeah, my dad was a mechanic for roughly 40 years. Everything from forklifts to buses.

Thanks for the help guys. Anybody want any of this stuff? I don't think I'm every going to be in a position to do THAT much wrenching and my dad told me just to sell or toss anything I wouldn't use. However, the 1 1/4" - 1 3/4" combination wrenches are just too damn cool to get rid of.

I'll take that dial indicator setup if you dont want it. I could actually use that for some of he stuff I do daily.

Need better pictures of B and D since they are the only ones left.

After seeing the picture blown up, the box says "Clutch Aligning Tool", makes sense I suppose.

No idea on D.

now that I've seen D, I know what it is I think. its a ridge reamer for like brake cylinders. I could actually use that for some stuff. same for that clutch tool if you dont want them.

What's all this stuff worth? I'm not in a position to give it away, but would accept trades. If I could make a buck that'd be sweet too.
