Vintage Craftsman 1/4" Drive Quick Release Ratchet (44807) Date Code: VT (Danaher Forge, USA-Made, c. 2004-2006) Series: V-Series

Condition & Service: This ratchet has been fully disassembled, inspected, and rebuilt. It is not just wiped down; it is ready to go straight back to work.

The Rebuild Process:

• Teardown: Internals completely removed and inspected for wear.

• Cleaning: Factory grease stripped and cleaned from the body, 36-tooth gear, pawl, ball bearing, and spring.

• Lubrication: Reassembled using Permatex White Lithium Grease for a smooth, protected, and crisp ratcheting action.

• Testing: Selector switch operates smoothly, quick-release mechanism releases perfectly, and the drive engages under load without slipping.

Cosmetics: The tool shows standard signs of use consistent with its age. (See photos for exact condition).

Note: The stamped lettering has been custom-filled with red paint for visibility and aesthetics. This is not factory original, but it can be easily removed with acetone by the buyer if desired.
