My Craftsman 3/8" teardrop ratchet wore out, needed the rebuild kit.
Stopped at the tool dept. showed the kid my 3/8" ratchet and asked for the rebuild kit.
He says they don't rebuild them anymore, what size is it? He can't see it is a 3/8" ?
He pulls out box full of new ratchets, (all made in China).
Told him I'll keep the one I have had since 1985.
I found the discontinued kit on ebay.
Updated: Back in NY my local Sears did not rebuild for you but handed you the kits.
The kit I needed has been discontinued about ten years ago. I like my classic teardrop wrench.
