I know ICON is coming out with that G2 line of ratchets next year. They maybe a stubby in the works. I know the handles look alot better.
Personally I like having that click sound. I've been a mech on aircraft and heavy equipment all my life. No click is just weird to me. I've used the no click ratchets before. Hated them.
Did this already and I went ahead and did the same to a Pittsburgh 1/4 as well. The Pitty doesn't work as good with a thumb spinner because the head is a little bigger.
Don’t they make a stubby already?
What kind of grease do you use? Do you have a link
