You need a support group or something there pal.


I kid... I'm just jealous.


Here is my humble little collection. They get used pretty regular and try as I might I can only use one at a time.

Three Snappys and a little SK.

 

[Mr.Nutcase]

Nice, more soon....

OMG, somebody noticed how OCD I am....

When I wipe them down before putting them away, I do flip the levers to off...

How good is that Matco stubby ratchet

How good is that Matco stubby ratchet

Surprisingly good, considering it has the same guts as a CMan. I bought it from wrenchr. The reverse lever was more brass than chrome, so I switched one over from a CMan. With RLL in it, it's a very nice little ratchet. Fits well in the hand. I guess the non-QR style of the Matco makes for better ratcheting...

So how did put the ball, that part seems jump when I take part...
Do the part from a Matco fit a Craftsman?

Is the 3/8's in the middle the 11 1/4 amd the 1/2 in the middle the 17 5/8?

Everything except the gear is interchangeable (the gear isn't since CMans have the QR).

Putting the ball: Put spring in hole, put ball on top. Use a thin slotted screwdriver to depress the ball and put the pawl/reverse lever etc. in. Only takes about three hands...

SO makes a super cheap tool to hold the ball in place (which I keep forgetting to get). Can't seem to find the link at the moment... Anybody?

Is the 3/8's in the middle the 11 1/4 amd the 1/2 in the middle the 17 5/8?

They are the FX80 and SX80 and replace a whole bunch of other ratchets for me since they lock. Highly recommended!

I did that once, no cheater bar just 2 big guys pulling. Yes it was a snap on.

 

[bmwpower]
