1942 Snap on 71-15 refresh/rebuild

[Ksem89]

Hey guys, just wanted to share a little project of mine. Picked up this 1942 71-15, pretty ugly and had a broken tooth.

I used the repair kit RKRA972.

I had the original brass switch, which I was determined to use. So it took a little customizing with the new switch , but I got it!

Had to shorten the new spring as well to get it smooth. Gave her a little polish, and she's beautiful once again!

That's a great ratchet. One of my favorites to use. Nice work!
