OK, I read the article here on the forum, this seems to be a version 2, so a lot of questions are now answered


It's almost the 25 catalog box, but on the left , the shelves for the ratchet are different.




I seem to have most of a drain plug set

I see drag link, but not sure some of the others

Also note the three weatherhead sockets with the weatherhead logo.

Did snap on make these for Weatherhead, or under license later?


and what is the short ratchet? just a spinner for low torque apps?

Thanks!!
