Anyone know what these are for?

Post by mywheels » Tue Oct 22, 2019 2:00 am

I picked these up at an antique store. Their shape fascinated me and the price was right for me to satisfy my curiosity. The hook portion of the brackets hook perfectly to the front axle wishbone on both my Model T and Model AA.

Are these brackets used for lifting or towing a Model T/Model A? Does anyone know what these are for?
