I have a craftsman professional 46 in toolbox. I need some drawer slides. I'm having trouble finding anything close to them. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Here's the model # of the box.

I used full extension utility slides in a Husky box that had a damaged slide. pop riveted them in place & it works perfect. for the purists, it's not original tho. would something like that work for you?

I also have a Craftsman Professional 46"X24" 13 drawer tool box with the Griplatch drawers that needed slides. I contacted Stanley Black & Decker support and they got me in touch with someone that does Waterloo support and they gave me a quote for the slides. They are $25 per side. With shipping and tax it was $73 for a pair. I needed a whole bunch to rehab an old tool box so it wasn't cost effective. I ended up buying a used Waterloo Magnum top box (like the red one below) and used those slides instead. How many do you need? I attached a pic of a damaged slide and the quote I got and finally the tool box in question.

Just measure the actual slides, and simply buy the same size generic replacements on eBay. I just went through the same thing with a Kobalt box, and the replacement slide assemblies were reasonably cheap.

Just 2 sets. For the top drawer. It has a single one that's worn out so I'm getting a second set to double up the top drawer. But I can get away with 1 set .

That is all what is wrong with the box..I like that side cabinet I been looking off on on for one.your craftsman box is identical to mine.

I also have a bunch of griplatch boxes. The slides for mine were available 5-10 years ago but now aren't, going by the part numbers on them. I looked into it when they were available, to add double slides on deep drawers, and they were $20+ each, so it got expensive fast and wasn't worth it to me. I occasionally look for a used, but somewhat beat up, equivalent box on FB Marketplace but haven't found even a nice one in my area in 6 months. I'm not in a rush, but I've been surprised I haven't found anything yet because I'm sure they sold a lot of these boxes.

Update;Thank you I ordered those slides and they fit perfect I put double slides on the top drawer all I had to do was cut off the grip latch bracket for the lower slide.
