Fazzman Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 Some companies call those spark plug ratchets if I recall correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicholasShetley Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 I had an s-k ratchet similar to that and I hated using it. I traded it to my dad for a regular flex head ratchet that I used far more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get by with regular ratchets, U-joints and extensions but I'm also not a professional mechanic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gotten by without it fine so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK13 Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Thanks, Mike! To everyone else, I know what it is, I just didn't know what it is, LOL. My next Snap On ratchet is likely to be an FBF80 (I think) 3/8" flex bent handle. If only Gearwrench would come out with an XP120 bent handle, instead of the 84 tooth that they have now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize I don't have any of my Snap On rats in there, plus, I just bought a couple of Wright 3/8" ratchets, a 3425 and a 3480. Photobucket is down for maintenance or I'd hang some pics of the shiny new goodness... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMack37 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Is that Wright a current model? I haven't seen any high quality open gear ratchets that were new. Those things have a history of being extremely robust, nearly unbreakable and very little upkeep. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK13 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Yup. Wright apparently started making them again for military mechanics in the Sandbox when their 'sealed' ratchets got gummed up. Available in 3/8" 3480 (shown) and 1/2" 4480. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK13 Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 $45ish, I think. I was at a store in Vancouver and I forgot about your state's stupid sales tax. Grrr. Sweet ratchet, though.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
