Since i have no clue about snap-on i`d like to know why these ratchet handle colors dont appear in the catalog ? Are they a special edition ? I like them somehow :)

PS: whats the difference between the FH936A ratchet and the SH936A ?

Part numbers that start with F are 3/8" drive, S are 1/2" drive, and T are 1/4" drive, L are 3/4" drive. I don't remember what 1" is.

Those are the preliminary hard handles when the new handle shape first came out; however from what I've been told on this board, S/O doesn't make those anymore. :dunno:

My old Snap-On Guy said the red one was a Christmas special. I had him order one and put it on one of my ratchets I used to have. Too bad he did it in his vice and put deep jaw marks on the ratchet shaft :rolleyes: I didn't like him much so I just took it and that was that. Later on my current Snap-On guy (Who is awesome) laughed at the situation and offered me a brand new one so I took it.
