    I have a SK 3770 ratchet (3/8 drive, bent handle, flex head) and the head no longer maintains its position and just flops basically. Curious if anyone has dealt with something similar and had a fix for it or just **** it up and deal with it knowing its had plenty of use and paid for itself?

    Ratchets: SK vs Snap on

    Tried a search and got the typical snap on versus everyone else but did not come across much comparison to SK. I'm a SK fan and have used their ratchets for some time but I keep reading how snap on is the best thing with their dual 80 ratchets. I have no one with one to be able to get my hands...

Anyway, I wanted my cabinets to mount...
