Found my old ratchet, missing since my retirement in 06 and would like to see if rebuild parts are available. I know craftsman has not made these in many years but maybe someone may know one available. Have no numbers but have included photos. Thanks.

These were Butterfly/flying V selector ratchets, from around 1959-1966. Rebuild kits on ebay when they appear will sell for more than the ratchets themselves, if it has some value to you, you would be better off just buying another like ratchet for parts IMO.
thanks for info. This ratchet was given to me by my Dad back in 75, along with a 14” chisel that I have yet to use as a chisel. I’m hoping to clean this ratchet up and pass it along to my son.These were Butterfly/flying V selector ratchets, from around 1959-1966.

Thank you for posting, printed out that link, lots of good information here. Good to have.Check out the Craftsman Teardrop Ratchet link below. Go to page 1, reply #10. It will provide you with a little more info about your ratchet.
