    Looking for Snap on toolbox slides

    I wasn't able to find anything but I didn't call snap on. I thought for sure I was going to have to replace mine but after cleaning them really good I was able to bring back even the most damaged ones to serviceable condition.

    The VINTAGE toolboxes of Garage Journal!

    Just joined today after finding some good info here. Picked a free toolbox on facebook marketplace listed for "scrap" and it turned out to be this snap on kr557b.
