Retrofitting Drawer latches to Lock n' Roll

[RobertMo1988]

I have an older kr1000, and sometimes i find my self fighting the drawers to stay shut while i try to lock the box, have any of you retro'd the drawers? i see they make a kit but when i put the part number on snap ons website i get nothing? it is on page 377 in the online catalog, or part number LATCHKRC-01. Do any of you know anything about these? or how i can do this?

To start i can't help with LATCHKRC-01 sorry. I also have the same KR1000 and matching top box, when purchased i had same problem. The problem is the detents rot and fall off. Snap on offers two versions GREY hard and BLACK soft, i tried the grey and thought they were too stiff so installed the black and fixed the problem. Now if you want a quick fix till you replace detents or find out about LATCHKRC-01 tilt box back by putting something under front wheels and drawers wont slide open. Hope this helps.
