Schrader valves. A/C still calls them that.
With that big knob, I thought it might be for the larger-size used in A/C lines. Any idea on the "T" tool I posted?
I am thinking maybe a guy in a tire shop that used it alot?
Oil filter wrench. Could also be a pipe wrench, used inside the pipe.
Nailed it!

mine has straight legs and no knurls on it, but it has to be one of my favorite tools
it is ridiculous how tight some people put their oil filters
Been in the biz for 30 years. Have had my share.
Shop across the road,with a customer that alternated for oil changes. The motorcraft filter was always a battle as their lube tech would crank em on, knowing full well who was taking it off. Mentioned it to customer, all he said was payback’s a *****. So i wrenched the filter on. Aparrently they tried to charge extra for a stuck filter. Customer knew the deal and refused to pay.
Never had a problem after that.

I always figured that the reason they ate cranked on is because people are worries it will vibrate off and you kill the engine
Never considered that people might just be jerks
But it is nice to hear they are trainable jerks
Plug remover? Early?
For alignment? , some ball joints were offset and had to be rotated.
To adjust kingpins?
It is to set/adjust a front end component, not align, not kingpins(never saw or worked on adjustable ones).
I've worked with plenty that viewed tightening oil drain plugs & filters as a test of their manhood........
Ahhh the old adjustable tie rod end tool. You know, the slot in the end, pull cotter pin and turn in the slotted adjuster
Ding!Ding!Ding! Drag-link & tie-rod tool, I aquired with My Home, the Gentleman & His Brother restored Model-A's.
Here's one I came across in a lot of tools I just bought.
And I wonder if I can fool anyone with this one....
