Not sure what's it for. Found it lying under a pile of rubble while cleaning out the shop. It is 31.5 inches overall length,has a 7.5 inch jog from the main shaft to the handle,the handle is 4.5 inches long,the whole thing is just over five eighths diameter and has two opposed nubs of one quarter inch about one half inch from the end.I was thinking maybe for a farmall A or B but I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated as I moved from the country into town and am trying to find the correct home for it. thanks,Elijah

With a shaft that long and small I'd think more about a jack handle or the tool to operate the spare tire hoist or a combination of both.
I just measured the shaft on the one in my pickup at 34". It's made in two pieces with a detachable handle.

No, I don't think so because it looks just like an engine crank starter. I'm sure that's what it is I just don't know what for.

It's a wrench for a International or Farmall Cultivator that fit either a M or H tractor

Could be a crank for a old truck. Sounds like one that would fit my 48 Studebaker 2 ton.

If your "just over 5/8" measurement" is correct, that'e awefull small for a tractor crank.

I don't know about a Cub, though!

could be a crank for an old power unit. I had a UD-6 Internat'l power unit that started on gas & switched to diesel, that could only be crank started. Ran a sawmill with it for years.

Could also be a car crank . A Models Fords and later model Cars and trucks had Crank notches in front pulley that would take a crank . But that was only for the brave they were an arm breaker .
I had a 48 Chev truck that had a crank with it .
