Does anyone have any information on these boxes? I have talked a little bit to my dealer about them, but cant seem to find any info on them online. Are they just a dealer only item? Just not on the site yet? any help or reviews would be spectacular.

It is a new classic line of box from what i understood. From the minneapolis craigslist ad i found(only thing on internet :mad: ) 55" long. Looks like it only has a ss badge on it. 10 drawers with two of them being the full length ones.

(2) full drawers, 55'' long sounds more like a masters series, but i can't find one with 10 drawers.

Probably a 22 badge, not an SS badge. I think you are talking about the KRA2422. Basically a Classic 78 with 2 full length drawers.

Edited to add: Seeing the pic above. It is an SS badge. Its been awhile since I saw the initial pics of these boxes.

That is a sweet looking box..........Is it only available in the black/flat black?

Also curious as to how well it will hold up, ie; weight per drawer? Is it on pay with a KRL722?

Probably got distracted by that new box shine. Judging by the one picture of the open drawer, there seems to be a lot of empty space. They might be trying to recoup some of their money to actually buy tools. Who knows.

Probably could be had for pretty cheap. I don't know why you'd want it in white though. It'd be dirty ALL the time.

My box finally showed up today. Still moving into it and getting things situated. This is the only pic for now right out of the box.

Some of the emblems have small studs that go thru the metal and are held on with friction nuts. Removing the emblem might leave holes.

ahh then i shall leave the emblem. I was reading in the owners manual and it says you need a special tool to remove the slides? I wanna change some drawers around.

I'm thinking of getting this box with my Snap on student discount, but I'm also looking at the other boxes that they offer with the discount. Like the Heritage KRA5311 and the Classic KRA2411. Wondering if anyone that have these boxes can give their likes and dislike of owning these boxes.

Really depends on your current tool/financial situation. If I could do it over again Id have gone bigger. I didnt expect to make the money I make so soon so I bought a lot of tools fairly quickly and have almost outgrown my classic. Its been a great box so far no real complaints except that they need taller casters. I think my box is way to short.

Can't really go bigger unless your Industrial rep really likes you. Mine said he'd get me whatever I wanted out of the catalog but I went with the SS. Best 2K I ever spent
