Re-building air ratchets

That is so strange at least its a simple fix. I have 3050 air chisel and it is one of the best tools I own.

I cannot figure out the luck either, I do take care of my tools, it is a PH2050 and it lasted less time than the FAR720 Ratchet. I do hope this inexpensive part fixes the issue within the air hammer.

Not sure why I opted for the 2050, I thought at the time it was the biggest they had....maybe the 3050 is a bit of a later version?

A bit ashamed to admit that at about the time this one let out ( 14 years ago, give or take ) I bought a Cambell Hausfield from Wal-Mart and in one form or another I have used it nearly Bi-daily and it has NEVER given me a lick of problem.

14.00 BTW
