    Need a third floor jack...

    I have 5 jacks. Two Torin Big red 3 ton jobs, one torin small trolley jack, and two Daytona Super Duty from HF. The HF ones are probably the best jack I have ever used in 40 years and that includes some in my past that were over 1000. Hands down the best. My other three Torin are humongous...

    20” deep boxes

    I have a couple of snap on boxes and a cheap Matco. My snap on is 29” deep. But, I need one that is 20” deep. Are there any particular series or numbers that are built like my KRl1001 but only 20” deep? I have a very specific location it needs to fit and 25-30” deep isn’t happening. I’m...

    Making new slides work on old KRL1001 box?

    Replaced all the slides on my krl1001 box. Unfortunately, the old ones are discontinued and there is a new number for these slides. The current slides are 8-05388ALRMS. Everything fits fine except the rail that goes on the drawers themselves. When you install it, the new slides have a tab that...

    Which brake cleaner am I thinking of?

    I usually buy just whatever I can that’s cheap. I call it brake cleaner or carb cleaner. Anyway, there was one I used to get that was a lot safer for plastics and rubbers. If I recall, it was more oily than the carb cleaner I have now that evaporates nearly instantly and is very very hard on...

    Fixing sloppy drawers in a KRL box

    So Snap On has been gracious as hell with parts on this box, but I havn't asked for slides yet. The wider drawers seem to 'drop' on the right side when you pull them all the way out. After a lot of inspection it seems the single screw that held the slide in place in the front loosened and...

    Throwing in the towel…how do you replace a snap on toolbox lock cylinder?

    I’ve watched all the videos, and most all of them have a round cylinder type of key. This is a KRL 1001 box. It’s huge. Even the locks themselves are huge. I don’t know how else to describe it, but the locks themselves are 1 inch across. It has two locks on it, but one cylinder has been...

    KRL1001 vs MB2010 - Are these both about the same?

    SO KRL1001 has an asking price of 800 with no negotiation available. Mac Tool MB2010 has an asking price of 1100. Both boxes are missing one lock and the snap on is missing the locking rod but is otherwise in good clean shape. The SO has fewer drawers at 12, and the MB2010 has 19 drawers...

    Toolbox ID Help?

    This appears to be old enough to have friction slides but looks like it's good quality. What is a fair price for this? Asking price is 2k, but seems like perhaps 1k ish is more reasonable. Am i right? Maybe this is a KRL?

    Looking for a lift for F350

    I have all pickups and I do all of my own repair work on them. I am finding it harder and harder to do front end work on my garage floor with jack stands. So, I am considering a lift. I have read many threads about 2 post vs. 4 post and I just can't see a down side to the 4 post. The main...

    Where to find Mac Toolbox slides???

    I have a slide or two that I cannot quite straighten. Where can I find a replacements? It looks like these slides are just some random Taiwanese ball bearing slide. The number on the back of one is 101994A.

    Help me identify this toolbox

    My tool dealer took this in on trade in. I’ve been looking for a box for a while and everything I see they want a lot for them. I picked up this Mac Tool box and the Matco top box for a couple hundred for the pair. I took both sight unseen and the guy delivered it. Nice fella. Definitely going...

    Water based degreaser in solvent based parts washer?

    Hi! I just registered after reading so much good info on this forum about welders and general garage stuff. I have a question about a parts washer. I recently picked up an old Snap-On YDM132 Parts washer locally for next to nothing. It seems to be in good working order. It is a 30G variety...
