Got this Fomoco tool with something else very cool and hope someone can provide some information as to it's use and era it came from. Series of collars and main bolt?, might be missing a collar as well. Thanks, GaryU.

T53 indicates a Ford special tool issued in 1953. The 3355 I would think is front suspension. If someone has a Manzel tool catalog they might be able to tell you more.
