Snap-on Ratchet Mod ?

[ijason]

Hello i just got this 1/2 drive set from snap-on, was wondering if it's posable to put a red hard handle grip on this ratchet? can that be ordered? Thank you

You can always put it in the lathe and the press and epoxy a handle on.

would need to cut the handle down some way to make it fit

Yep The handled ratchets have a narrow shank like a screwdriver.You could cut it down in a lathe or sell it and get one with a handle

That ratchet doesn't have the shank for a handle to fit. Too much of a -pita- to try and modify it to put a handle on there because it probably will never fit quite right. RV77 is right, you would be better off selling it off for one that already has a handle.
