Hey guys. I picked up this old ratchet and I’m restoring it. It is 5/8” drive female. Does anyone know where I can get an adapter for it so I can make it to a 3/4” or 1/2” drive? Thank you

I bet a machinist could make one up easily. Otherwise, I think you'll only find it where vintage tools are sold. Ebay might be the place to start.

Didn’t Snap-On make 5/8” drive sockets and handles years ago? Industrial line maybe?

K-C Tool, Kansas City, MO.
See if they have one in Heyco or Wiha maybe?
These are also made by Hazet. Not sure who carries them. Last time I looked the only distributor was in Florida. (That was a few years back.)
The nomenclature makes searching for them challenging.
