Canadian 1925 to 1927 Tire Change Rim Tool

[J1MGOLDEN]

The Canadian 1925 to 1927 Model Ts had a Rim Tire Change Tool that kind of looked like a varmit trap with big springs and short pegs that fit those holes near the rim break.

A friend has an early Dodge with the same rims.

Would anyone have one they do not need or some photos of that tool?

I have lost my photos!

James, there is no reason the usual three legged rim tool would not work on split rims. They are far more plentiful. I have only ever had one of the "varmint trap" style rim tools.

I have seen a picture but can't find it right now. Allan, I think you sent me a pic one time. I would like to have oine just because it goes with my Canadain car but they seem to be hard to find.

Does it look like this one?

[J1MGOLDEN]

Yes!

Thank you!!

Are there other vehicles for the same time period, like a Dodge, that used those rims and that tool?

Adrian, I thought I had photos of the one I found for my mate in Western Australia, but I couldn't find them. When you made your post, the cardboard background piqued my interest. Might I have posted it somewhere, and you had the good sense to save it, and the wit to be able to find it at will?

Hi Allan, most probably, I did not take the picture nor could I find a reference who did!
Kind regards

That photo does look like the one I used to have, but can no longer find.

I do not know where I got it or the other one similar that shows a side view that I can't find either.
