Snap on hard handle. Where to buy?

[joedodge]

Are you looking for SO handles for SO ratchets that already have hard handles or just for the handles themselves?

Most older hard handle ratchets are forced to use the newer green, orange or blue as repalcements that the most recent special offereings and corp. came out with a few years back for the run of HH ratchets.

If only the handles for actual SO offered HH ratchets you need a driver or call SO customer service.

If you are dealing with custom, PM GJ member gj67stang.
Or search Gj via Google as there are many lists as to what screwdriver handles can be drilled to fit what sized ratchet.

I would like to find some myself. There is a thread somewhere on here where a member made 3/8" drivers by drilling a HH and pressing a extension through it. I made a few, they are awesome. I wouldn't mind making some more HH ratchets as well.

I have a driver who comes by the shop late every other week or so but isn't amazing to deal with lol. Yes these are for original snap on hard handle ratchets

Hard handles are on the trucks not on the web. Snap on corporate sends them out in batches of colors and types so you have to be there right place right time to get them. They are not available on a regular basis like the instinct handles are. Makes them an impulse buy, cause if the driver has the color you like you better buy it then or it will be gone next week. Clever marketing strategy.

Can you switch a hard handle ratchet out for a soft handle?? Just curious.

Didnt Chadster1 have a thread listing the hard handle part #'s? I tried searching for it but couldnt find it. It was from a couple years ago when they werent making sets of the hard handles anymore.

Edit: it was mrshaun found a link, I think these are just screwdriver handles though :/
