Default Out by one number!

Thanks Bruce for the information.I am out by one number and one good thing is I don't have to try and unseize it now as it is solid with rust!I will keep an eye out now for a 925 Walker jack.Sorry,no rad socket yet but I will be out there again looking around.I figured out how to take close up pictures with my camera so took one of the track pin's head stamps,I also found a crank in the scrap pile,not sure what it's off of.Not sure if Canadian Tire was around in WWII but found a C broad arrow marked punch.

Derk: Craftsmen is the tool brand controlled by Sears, and according to Wikopedia has been making tools since about 1927. Not sure if they were making them in Canada, but US tooling certainly would have found it's way up here.

Canadian tire's house brand tools are Mastercraft.

Default Another good day at the Army surplus yard today!

Found a few more items for my carrier in a shed Rob,Laun & I were in today.
The starting crank rod for my carrier.I had made one up but it always bugged me I didn't have an original one and now I do! I also found one more track pin to complete the 6 needed for my tool list.Another good find was the socket BB 17033 B that I needed for my carrier tool list.Thanks to Rob who identified it to me and made me realize I was still looking for that one.At the bottom of a pail was a brass cap for a flimsy and it just happens that I need one for a 2 gallon I have that was missing the cap!
I also found a jack that I believe is for the WWII jeep.Maybe a jeep purist can confirm this for me.I did an internet search and viewed the images and some show a rectangular base plate and some show the square base that I have.
Regards,Derk.
