Had a 70 VW Beetle with 4 wheel drum brakes and the rear drums/hubs had shafts similar to that .
vw bettles had a splined axle yet still needed a puller,and a 375 pound torque wrench to reinstall that 36 mm nut ,as the torque needed was 250 tom your correct amc was another with the tapper,
thought it was the rambler... but it was A LONG time ago, and i have had over 100 cars and trucks registered and on the road over the years.
the memory aint what it used to be...
memory is ok,it's the body thats not , spine, knees,hips, shoulders, eyes,
tool wise,there's not a single wrench who fails to have a pile of obsolete tools, esp when they fill these
I've worked on thousands of vehicles over the past 40+ years (what I do for a living) and I can honestly ask, WTF is a tapered brake drum? I know what a brake drum is and I know what it means to have a taper. I've never in my life heard those two words being used together when describing brake parts on ANY automobile. Is this something they used 200 years ago? lol
By the 1950's, the tapered drum was replaced by a flange pressed into the drum and pretty much stays there. Chrysler used them through 1964 and AMC Jeep through 1971 or so. Back before WW2, some were made in one piece. If you see a large castellated nut on the end of the axle, you'll need the drum puller. I've seen guys try to use the 2, 3 and 4 jaw pullers but those just warp, if not destroy, the brake drums.
Front drum brake drum brake drums are the same way. The lug studs are on a flange that presses into the drum and stays there. You remove the entire assembly not the drum.
your not alone having worked on NON juice brakes . last time was just 2 years ago on this old dog . here we are talking about old tools and brakes, how about king pin tools ?
Not sure if this obsolete or exactly what is was used for . No markings but I believe it is for a 5 MM screw .
Not seeing all the sides but it looks like a tool used on late 1980's and early 990's Ford distributors to change the little electronic parts in the unit.

That looks to be the tool to take off the ignition control module on the OBS Fords. I have one, and yes, they still are in use at least in my shop and anyone with an old Ford with a bad ICM.

I had one and might still have dunno, haven't seen it in years. Works on GM distributor modules as well.
