when you buy a craftsman rebuild kit does the dirrectional switch come with the kit. they want a model no. but we don't have one . this ratchet was included in the tool set i bought my first mechanic jpb in the real early 50s the ratchet works good just the handle or switch is broken.bob w.

Yes, the selector comes in the kit.

Let me dig in my stash. Is it 3/8 drive?

[amertrac]

It is 1/2 in drive single =v= with oil hole

[Papaw]

Nope, I don't have a kit for 1/2" drive. Bonneyman might.

Bob, that ratchet first appeared in the 1957 catalogue as model 4497. The repair kit was 4498.

I don't have a selector switch for you, but I'm sure you'll find one quickly.

Let me go see if I have a baby rattle selector knob in 1/2".

Yeah, I have one. It's not a "D"- post, so if your pawl is a "D"- post you'd have to modify this one. But it's yours if you want it.
