Take a guess as to what this is for... Pliers for size reference. Those who get it right get a cookie.

Well, it's too big to be a proctology tool...

I think you're scaring people off by offering a cookie as a prize. We've all grown up with parents warning us not to take sweets from strangers.

Duesenberg in cab 480v heater coil assembly puller. It was conceived way back before things made sense. You let the "prongs" weld themselves to the coils and then pull on the T-handle. The kit came with very, very thick leather driving gloves.

You got the puller part right. But it's for something else.

Here's a hint. It's made by OTC.

It looks like the thing you put on the end of the crank to pull the crank/flywheel off like lawnmower engines, but bigger.

The other part looks almost like some kind of mixing bit to mix a massive amount of something, like cement or plaster.

Some fun guesses! - Paul

Here's another hint. The set is used on heavy large diesel engines.

Stuck trailer hitch puller. The kids hold on to the "T" while Dad slowly pulls away.

We had one at my last job that was about three feet long and 100 pounds or so. It worked great unless the engine fire deck had studs, at which time you had to remove all the studs for the puller to have a place to seat on the fire deck. Sometimes you had to place a deep socket under the liner against the throw of the crankshaft and have someone slowly rotate the engine to use the crankshaft as a make shift press to help get the liner unseated. The coolant jacket o-rings really hold tight around the liners.

The sleeve adapters says max of 5 tons. I can see the sleeves exceeding that if they've been in for a million miles or thousands of hours. Thanks for the tip.

Tapatalk uploads them in whatever resolution your phones camera is set at. My phone has a crazy high def camera and some of the pix are 5,000 x 3,000 pixes and come out enormous if I upload them here. Your phone must be similar because it goes off screen and I have to scroll to the side even on my 25" monitor.

You can use MS paint to quickly resize them. I just resize down to 25% of the original size and then they dont require side scrolling.

Hmm, I just use a wooden handle from a wire brush and a hammer... :) Maybe the Diesel engines I work on are smaller...

Got the exact same setup, but I picked up this ancient internally expanding sleeve pulled that I use more often.
Big ******* shown takes two guys to get set up.
