Need tool identification help.

[PhoneGuy]

I believe this is a Ford Pitman arm puller. I am looking for the proper number for this tool. Can you help?

Without a size reference, looks like rear hub puller to me. Might be modified Model A but could be for other cars of the era.

[PhoneGuy]

Do these help?

Aren’t the hub pullers threaded to screw on the hub?

[RajoRacer]

Ford wire wheel rear hubs, both T & A use that type of puller.

[John kuehn]

So the threaded pullers are for wood wheel hubs. Learned something. Never owned a 26-27 T or Model A. I have 3 earlier T’s.

It does resemble my modern Snap-On Pittman arm puller.

Bruce McCalley's encyclopedia on disk includes lists of all the Model T Ford tools. That's kit tools that came with the car, and shop tools (3Z and 5Z). I would look there.

A pitman arm puller would look very much like a wire wheel rear hub puller, but be only about half the size. Based upon the ruler? I would guess a hub puller. "A" wire wheels rear hubs have a simple ridge on them for the hub puller to slip onto and pull, Been a Long-long time since I saw or used one (a good friend's model A days over forty years ago!), but that was what it looked like. Those pullers are made in many (maybe a hundred over so many years now?) sizes and what it is for is all about what does it fit? They are used on everything from tractors and small cars to manufacturing machinery and printing presses. They were also manufactured by many different companies for so many different applications. I can't help with the numbers for them. Most companies that made such tools used their own numbering systems. The numbers for many of the common tool suppliers may be available on any of several tool collector websites, but I don't know any of them myself.

Steve, I have the paperback version and it does list some of the tools. I do not have the disc’s so, I will need to find another resource. I also looked at the MTFCA website and their on line version. I have tried googling with different terms in attempt to find a resource that can help me. I have tried the old forum trying to see if I can find an example. I was not successful. I do have this image but, it is tough to read.

This is the factory puller for wire wheel rear hubs. I would not like to exert the same power this one is capabble of absorbing to that cast item, if indeed it is a wheel puller.

I check the recessed groove type, the groove is about 1-5/8 so I would say this one is for the shoulder type hub. Different manufactures used different type thread on the pull bolt.
