    Extreme Tool boxes

    I have the 56 with stainless top. I bought it used and it is a very nice box. The only complaint I have is the drawers slide open way to easily. I contacted extreme tools and they sent me new rubber detents and they worked good for about a month. If you even move the box the drawers start to...

    I was also looking at the skins because they say they give some protection but didn't want to spend the money. Also didn't see them giving much protection

    protecting tool box investment

    I work at a company called Pactiv we make plastic cups, plates ect. I usually walk around with a pouch and when that doesn't cut it just grab the box. A lot of guys work out of tool bags and some just throw tools they think they will need on a cart. Have tried both options but seems like I...

    2 on the way haha...thanks guys!!! I know a lot of auto mechanics that don't have this problem because they do not move their boxes around most have carts. There is only 1 other guy that I work with that has a snap on box but is a big triple bank so he doesn't move it. Making numerous trips...

    protecting tool box investment

    Hey everyone! I am new to the forum and just recently purchased a krl722. I am an industrial maintenance mechanic so I am pushing my box around the plant most of the time. Where I work people don't pay attention or simply don't care so boxes are always getting scratched or dented. I was...
