Snap-on drawer slide replacement

[Sharky]

Looking for a source for the drawer side runner for a Snap-on KR560 cabinet. I got replacement slides from Snap-on under warranty, but the drawer portion is worn out.



The rest of the box has been all refurbished, new ball bearing slide for the bottom drawer is on its way. Just need to fix the one drawer to finish the project.

Can that one be removed and straighten out? I have not had any luck finding new, have made some rails etc.

The slide is actually worn through and the metal is stretched. It is a spot welded on runner. I'd like to find a replacement and cut the old one off then weld on a new one.

SPG International uses a similar design on some of their boxes. NAPA sells them rebranded, and NAPA also sells parts! At least NAPA Canada does!

Go to page 42 in this link

I have no idea if it's the same dimension, but it might work.

If this is a box you plan on keeping, I'd replace both sides with low profile ball bearing slides.

Its a keeper, for a while anyway.

Here's how it started:


Here's where I'm at now:


Just need to finish the last 2 drawers.

No help on the drawer slide, but that looks a lot better. Do you have a restoration thread? People will enjoy that.

Putting a thread together, but want to finish it before I post it. Might have to do an "incomplete resto" until i get the drawers finished
