My uncle left me his toolkit when he passed and I finally got around to opening one of his footlockers and found this thing.

Any idea what it is? A socket wrench for the Golden Gate Bridge maybe?

I have a 2 1/8” with that same ratchet drive and a 6’ steel cheater bar to drop my bush hog blades. That’s probably pretty close to that one.. I think my tractors have 1 3/4” on rear but I use a pneumatic impact on them.

Hope the OP keeps it.

Ahaha I bought the drawer out at Lowe's in the Craftsman bin the other day.

That and sockets. Every damn thing I seem to work needs this shite. Kids use my tool chest and I keep missing them. Got 4 of em now dammit.

My dad has some like that from when he worked on the Avondale shipyard. After he passed mom told me and my brother that we can go through the old tools he had and asked us to take those if we wanted. We’ll never have a use for them

The Pittman arm nut on my truck is about that big, I didn’t have a socket that fit it, bigger than 1 3/4ths
