I recently picked up a Kobalt tool set. It came with the 90 tooth ratchets. I grabbed the 3/8" drive one and take it a part to see if there was any lube on the internals. It was bone dry.

Long story short, I dropped the ratchet and the internals went all over the work bench. I have all the internals and am ready to reassemble, but I'm having trouble figuring it out.

I've only taken apart SK and Craftsman ratchets before following videos on YouTube, but I can't find anything on the 90 tooth Kobalt ratchets.

Is anyone familiar with the reassembly of the 90 tooth ratchets from Kobalt? I could use your guidance.

Amateur mistake!

Take it back to Lowe's and tell them it came apart on its own and you want to swap it.

Thats warranty abuse.

Could you post some pictures of the parts you have? Lets make sure you have everything first.

Buy another. Take it apart. Hope it doesn't explode like the first. Put the first back together the way the new one is. Then return the second one.

Here is a pic with the internals. There is small spring inside the directional lever selector (middle of picture)

Where does the little thing in the bottom fit? In the ratchet handle some how? Other than that it's pretty straight forward.
