I bought some lots on a online auction but were not sure on a few things I know they are a hub puller and looks like part of blind hole puller but the blind hole is missing parts and no marks for manufacture

Third one looks like a pilot bearing puller, goes on a slide hammer. Does the piece fit in the middle and spread the jaws if it were to be tightened?

The hub puller is for the drum brakes that were used on tapered axle ends. Most modern cards that have axles have a flange the brake rotor/drum to it. Not a locking taper that was used on cars before the 60's. They were a ***** to get off if you have ever run into one. You tightened the heck out of the puller then used a sledge hammer to shock the taper loose with loads of oil. Lots of work to check brakes on them.

+1 on a hub puller.
I have the one shown above for working on old stuff.
If you have a vehicle old enough to use that tool you probably need drag link sockets to work on the steering linkage.

Amen! Glad those days are behind us. Chrysler finally ditched those axles in 1965, I believe. When we couldn't access that puller, we would raise the opposite side and hammer out the exle through the drum, really tough if the drum wasn't off for thirty years.

The hub pullers are still used by the older Jeep guys for pulling rear hubs, I just bought one awhile back for my CJ3 project.
