Craftsman Tool Box Drawer Slide Upgrade

Craftsman Tool Box Drawer Slide Upgrade - It's a heavy duty box but i could buy a used ball bearing box for close to the cost. Drawer will slide past tab to install. The old slides were welded to the drawer box sides, so i had to cut out the spot welds. I have places already for larger power tools so that wasn't need in. Here is the new slide. Looks like one i have 30 to 40 years old. Only tool required is a small prybar or flathead screwdriver to pop the old slide out. No wood to be seen. And here is the finished product. Funny you sent that retro setup.

Funny you sent that retro setup. And here is the finished product. If the latch doesn't release close the drawer slightly to release tension on the latch and try again. No wood to be seen. I ended up buying a large harbor freight box about 10 years ago for my main boxes, they work fine. Only tool required is a small prybar or flathead screwdriver to pop the old slide out. Pull the drawer all the way out and look at the slides. Later i will end up with another side hanger and a top box to complete the set. Drawer will slide past tab to install.

I Lift The Tab And Turn It Out Of The Slot So Drawer Will Come Out And Leave It That Way Till I Am Ready To Install.

You might see a metal tab you need to push in or pull out slightly. I have places already for larger power tools so that wasn't need in. No wood to be seen. The old slides were welded to the drawer box sides, so i had to cut out the spot welds.

Funny You Sent That Retro Setup.

On the craftsman drawers, just pull them out and you will see a small black spring like thing on the forward end of the slide. I ended up buying a large harbor freight box about 10 years ago for my main boxes, they work fine. The part number on the existing bb slide is jonathan mfg 370555 the clearance is fine to convert to bb, but the factory bb uses a machine screw with a welded in tab to reinforce the sheet metal. This looks like your box model #706650110 craftsman tool chest looks like the slides are no longer available from sears parts direct.

Here Is The New Slide.

Later i will end up with another side hanger and a top box to complete the set. Made the box sides much more rigid. On the front of the slider the black tab lifts out and the drawer will come out. Pull the drawer all the way out and look at the slides.

The Install Is Very Easy, They Slide Into Pre Existing Slots And Snap In Place.

I am replacing 2 craftsman 3 stacks with this one cart and side hang drawer unit. Be sure not to completely pull it out, 'cause you will lose it. Pull it up, detaching it from the drawer. Only tool required is a small prybar or flathead screwdriver to pop the old slide out.
