Mystery Dunlop Items

[Dieselman 63]

Hello,

I was out getting items for my crawler and was given these. The guy thought they were flywheel clutches for the tractor - fair guess as the tractor has an automatic clutch which engages around 600rpm. I’ve measured them though, and they’re not the same size.

They came in a box with a Dunlop tyre iron (I think?) and read ‘Dunlop TW 29 Made in England’. Are they clutch assemblies? Wheel hubs? Brake drums? I have zero idea what they’re off or how old they are.

Any advice welcomed!

Yes, Looks like some pieces from a PTO clutch pack.

Hi, They look like the centre hubs for solid rubber wheels. The pressed steel discs clamp the rubber tyre on the cast centre. The only thing missing is the tyre. Modern versions don't generally have the cast bit.

I dare say I think you might be right. This may actually be what they are, the tool bar has two wheels it trails along, now to find a solid rubber tyre.
