Worth rebuilding Snap-On FAR72B?

Here it is:


It worked fine, but the drive broke. I can't find the replacement part listed on the site, anyone know how to go about repairing it? Any other ratchets that would use the same part? Or should I just forget it?

Thanks for any help!

Turn it in for rebuild to Snap on. Used to be 99$ lifetime. Last time I sent mine in got a 72C back. Wish I could have kept the original since I'd had it for 25 years but the new one kicks a$$ and that's what I got it for in the first place.

And he needs "A" but it isnt in the list with prices. Which is why his dealer told him parts arent available. But SO will repair it using FAR72c parts. I am not sure what all may need to be changed to use FAR72c parts

ETA-The anvil alone is $72 for the FAR72c, so if its $99 to rebuild I would say its probly worth sending in

If that's the case I have 2 far72b that I got in a box of used tools, I'd be more then happy to send the parts needed to fix yours.

wow! that is very generous of you, I would be more than happy to cover shipping. I believe all I need is the drive, other than that it worked.

I got this from a mechanic/friend for free, but then he broke my craftsman one that I loaned him for the week until his Matco guy came so I've been without an air ratchet for about a year now. It would be AWESOME to finally get this thing working!
