Craftsman tool chest question

[Don R]

Its been a long time since I made any posts of the progress of my 84 Jimmy. Things are slow but going well for my first real large project. I've put a few before and after pics la and learned a lot.

I do have a question concerning my 40 yr old craftsman tool chest. The drawer slides are shot. They have twisted, bent just worn out. 1st pic. Has anyone upgraded their old box with ball bearing slides?

Thanks
Don

So that's where I left my level.

Look on craigslist for free filling cabinets. Those slides work great, and very strong

You can buy some sliding rails on amazon and even get the soft close function. All you need to do is figure out the length of your old ones and go look here.

Weight handling is 50 lbs per rail from what I can tell.
