I'm also in need of a lever retaining ring for a Craftsman 44985 1/2" drive ratchet. If anyone has a spare one I will PayPal postage. I just can't justify buying a $20.00 repair kit for a $15.00 ratchet and I would hate to throw the ratchet out. Thanks!

Hello folks, I signed up to research my new-to-me Ultra Yellow KRL761 and have already learned a lot. I had no idea how old it was when I bought it but now know the KRL761 was discontinued in early 2007. My KRL761 is the later one, the single lock version. It's square, slides are good, now...
