✅ SOLVED What are these mechanic tools used for?

[vscience]

Updating... so the bigger tool is for separating tie rods.
Someone suggested the other tool is for making flanges on high pressure tubing. Is this correct?
Thanks for your help.

Separating tie rod ends

 

[Actionman]

On the left a pickle fork, used to remove tie rod ends. It's a tapered fit so that wedges in where the rubber boot is on your tie rod end, damages the boot and pops the tie rod end out of the steering knuckle. The other tool is part of a flaring tool for tubing. A bar with holes in it for the tube slides in the slots and the forcing screw forms the flare.

The one on the left is called a "pickle fork" it's used for removing ball joints on the steering assembly of your car. The other is either a flywheel puller or a bearing press for automotive use.

Yes, it's part of a tube flaring set. Most commonly used for brake lines. Below is a pic of a complete tool set.
