Rear axle bearing sleeve puller, Pictures NEEDED!

[Pep C Strebeck]

I am looking for some photos of a couple of parts/points on the sleeve puller shown below:

In particular I am looking for photos showing the shape/profile on the end of the rod that raises and lowers the pin that catches the hole in the bearing sleeve:

If anyone has one of these Cantrell-Miller sleeve pullers and they would be willing to post a couple of photos of the end of the rod where it fits into the slot on the pin, that would be extremely helpful. I am trying to find out what the original profile/shape was of the end that would actually raise/lower the pin, or at the very least an image of what was NEAR to the original shape. Any and all information or photos are appreciated.

Bob, thank you for the photos, that is exactly what I was looking for. The one that I have has been welded on and ground so the original detail/shape/dimension is lost. Yours looks pretty good, still having the center for when it was turned. If possible would you be able to get any dimensions from the pin? From what I can "guess" from the one in front of me is the pin is right around 3/16" in diameter and 1/8" in length. These measurements/dimensions would make it fit into the slot on the pin fairly well. What I would like to know now is the location of the pin, please see my poorly drawn example:

Again, any and all help is appreciated.

Hope this helps

Bob if no one has called you a Superhero today, I will! Go buy yourself a cape! Thank you for the photos and the dimensions both of them are spot-on, exactly what I needed. I knew that the shoulder on the one edge wasn't much, just enough so the pin will index into the slot.

The pin that raises and lowers and engages the bearing sleeve is in good/serviceable condition, but it is the pin on the end of the rod that needs replacing. As long as I am going to make the one part, I will make them both. Not a complicated fix. For a 100+ year old tool I think that it has held up well.
