Are you sure it is a muffler bearing packer and not a Johnson Rod alingner?

Acme made a duel purpose model back in the mid 1930s so we could both be correct.

It appears from this ad that muffler bearings now come pre-grease packed.

Furthermore, it appears that modern Johnson rod alignment is unnecessary for they come pre-aligned.

Modern technology has taken much of the art out of auto repair.
