Another Iron thing.

OK, found this today in a city park not too far from a river. What do you think?

Looks like half of a leaf spring shackle.

Jim, here's a pic of a leaf spring...



Part of the springs on the rear of a vehicle.

Wow, thanks. I don't know what I would do with all this junk I have collected if I didn't have all you guys to tell me what it is....Thanks a bunch.

Why the different size holes?

With no distinguishing features it could be off any kind of machinery (although the orange paint brings Alice Chalmers farm equipment to mind). Could be tractor, auto, truck, construction, lawn mower, or any one of thousands of different pieces of machinery. Sometimes it is just a piece of flat iron with holes in it.

Yea, great question, why would it have 2 different sizes? interesting...
