What is it?

Post by Tbird » Sun Mar 30, 2025 1:09 pm

Someone gifted this to me thinking it was some sort of tool for a Model T oil pan drain plug…
I know that it’s not for that.

Anyone want to take a guess?
The socket is removable with a screw.

It is an aftermarket tool for removing and installing the nuts on the third main bearing cap on a 3 dip pan.
