Stubby 3/8" ratchets?

[buffalobill]

I have an sk 3/8 in 1/4 body, and a mac tools qr 3/8 stubby, i much prefer the qr mac.

That's Impressive

Can't help with any other options. I only acquired one last year when I bought a Gearwrench socket set. What surprised me is how often I find myself reaching for it.

Hmmmmmm, I may just end up making my own....

I made one also, cut down a 11" 1/4 ratchet with a flexhead.

I had the Gearwrench 3/8" stubby (81209) years back when Cripe had them for $6. Really good little ratchet.

I've since sold it off and gone with 3/8" in 1/4" body ratchets. Just found them to be more versatile when you really need them. The Snap-on 3/8" in 1/4" roto ratchet has been by far the most useful.

If I needed another true 3/8" stubby, I'd probably just run down to Napa and go with a Carlyle R38S.

I LOVE my Carlyle R38S. But I also love the Carlyle “Roto” Head ratchet. My pops was in desperate need for new ratchets. He got a killer deal on the 3pc set. Not US, but certainly not junk either.

I bought that same set. I haven't used them much but they seem pretty good.

How about a standard Craftsman raised panel? I'm always reading here on the GJ about how short the handles are....

 

[potato]

even stubbier stubbies.

I just got the Wright 3430. I like it

+1. I've also got a Snap-On FK80, but I seem to grab this Wright stubby about 75% of the time.

I've had the SnapOn Fk936 for a few years and love it. is is my 2nd most used ratchet. I bought it on sale for about $75. I have the Snapon Roto also a never use it. If I had it at home, I might use it on my quads or dirt bike.

That's all I did. Had a couple of Craftsman 3/8" ratchets from tool kits bought over the years that I didn't use anymore. A hack saw or cut-off wheel and a little smoothing of the rough edges and Bob's your uncle.

 

[Jason280]

Finally got around to making one....

Looks good! Whats the tooth count?

I have a Snap On 1/4 body with the 3/8 guts!

Metoo, not a fine tooth though...

Doing the swap:

Vs. F80:

It's at a least a 72t. I've had it for over a year now. Cool part is the selector will hold in the middle making the ratchet fixed

I really like my Gearwrench 120XP 3/8 stubby. Great rat irrespective of price.

 

[rustbucket5]

I'm not sure, maybe around 60 or so.
