Did a search and it looks like it is for adjusting the rear band on transmission.

It's for: COMET, EDSEL, FALCON Ford 2-Speed Auto Trans 1959-60.


Copied and pasted:


Rear Band (Reverse Range): Drain transmission and remove oil pan and screen. Loosen rear servo piston rodlocknut and adjusting nut, then install tool as follows:If Ford Tool T59P-77409-A used, place tool on rearservo rod so two forks straddle band apply lever.NOTE • The inner fork must engage flat on servo pist nrod. The outer fork is a %" spacer and must be insertedbetween piston rod seat and adjusting nut. If Edsel Tool7355-A used, insert tool between adjusting nut andpiston rod-to-actuating lever seat, with opposite endof tool resting on raised boss on control valve assembly.With wrench T59P-77423-A (Ford), or No. 7355-B(Edsel),tighten adjusting nut until wrench handle snaps (breaks)over center. NOTE - These tools are pre-set torquewrenches which overrun when torque on screw reaches45-50 inch pounds. Back off adjusting nut exactly twtums. Hold adjusting nut at this position and tightenlocknut to 15-18 ft. lbs. Remove tools from servo pistonrod. Install oil pan and screen using a new gasket.
