Guys,
I just bought a KRA-398A Aviation roll cab (Taco Cart). It's missing the rubber handle end caps. The handle part number is KR-402A.

I'm trying to either locate a set of rubber end caps or come up with a good alternate. Anybody got any ideas? TIA

Also,
Can someone please post the snap on red paint code? I'm going to use three part automotive paint from Sherwin-Williams but I need to know what to ask for. Thanks

SOL unfortunately. That's not the true taco box, those are KR562.

Can anyone give me dimensions of the rubber ends on the handle for the KRA-396 tool cart (taco wagon)? From my handle I estimate the inside hole is 5/8" x 1-5/8". But I don't know the outside dimensions, how thick it is and I know it has a taper from the handle side outward.
I also have confirmed they are no longer available from Snap-On. It goes on the KR-402A handle and is part number 396K5201. I would like to find a pair for myself and a pair for a friend. Short of that I would like to get an old one to use to make a mold and make some.
Thanks

I have obtained dimensions of the wedge-shaped end cap on the handle. It is NOT the same as the nicely-molded end cap Aeromech showed above. If I tried to get some made, how many of you would be interested in a pair? I am thinking of having them machined from solid rubber. I think I would have too much if I had them made of silicone or urethane rubber. I have NO idea of the cost yet.
