well when i was pulling my silvertop out at the weekend i realised my powerbuilt ratchet has crapped itself
its done the same thing all my shitty old smaller ratchets have done on me in the past

will be taking it back for a replacement.... :evil:

Depends where you go, they might not replace it...I know we have to send them back to Alltrade to be repaired. Is the selector pin falling out or has it shorn teeth?

feels like fuxed teeth
ie it spins around when youre trying to do stuff up
and its not from putting too much stress on stuff, as thats what the power bar gets used for!

(hehe, Satan)

Yeah, they often shear off teeth...is it 3/8th or 1/2?

Santa's TardMe Listings · by **Santa'sBoostinSleigh** » Mon Dec 11, 2006 2:37 pm

1/2"
all of my 1/4" ones in the past have crapped out, hence why i went for 1/2" this time

even undoing 10mm bolts, it decides to spin around and not work....

stupid powerbuilt! :evil:

Shit you must have leaned on it pretty hard, the 1/2 guys dont break that often.

Strange... I've never had a problem with any Powerbuilt/Repco branded tools and I've given my set more than it's fair share of abuse.

Also the mark up on them are $&#$% huge!!!
Mike hooked me a up 3/8 set for 70$... normally in store for around 250$!!!

Thats like staff cost

Andrew - they did have a run of not so shithot ratchets, so you may have just gotten one of the not so good ones.

Dont even bother with power built, if ur feeling rich go get some koken, not as rich genius, and poorer teng. even jonesway from BNT are good value for the price. i bought a 1/2in set just over a year ago, havnt had a problem using it every single day, even doing stupid things like kicking the ratchet to crack bolts, dropping it from waist highet many times a day because im to lazy to bend over :roll:

by **no_8wire** » Mon Dec 11, 2006 3:52 pm

King Tony are also good...nice price too

by **sergei** » Mon Dec 11, 2006 4:15 pm

King tony are very good value for money. I think they are made at same factory as Teng tools....
