Snap-On Toolbox - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

BooKilla · 01-15-2008, 07:23 PM

I received a very extensive craftsman tool set for christmas (as seen in the MANY PICS below). So, I thought to myself......hmmmmmm.......where will I put all of these tools? I looked at my POS small toolbox and shook my head. I looked at my storage closet and shook my head. It was then I knew that it was time. So the search began for the right toolbox for BooKilla!

And then I saw it. The Snap-On toolbox that would be mother to my tools...(Stock#: KRA5213D) 13 drawer double bank in black.

Without further adu......may I introduce....Tiffany

I'm surprised that tool box hasn't spit out the crapsmen stuff

Seriously, nice score on both tools and box

Lots of room in there though, you need lots more tools...

and a top box...

and lots more tools.

Your sockets are upside down

Very nice! I've been looking into a somewhat-large box to replace our 30-year-old Matco box. It takes 2 hands to open most of the drawers...especially the bottom one with our 3/4" stuff and impacts.

I got approved for a Craftsman Credit Card...so I've been looking...

silvrjeepr · 01-15-2008, 09:29 PM

Very nice box. It'll still be around for the grandkids when your done sucking air. May I ask how much it set ya back?

7.62FMJ · 01-15-2008, 09:36 PM

I'll bite and say around $3k

To small for 3k. Look on CL you can get one almost 2x that big for 3k.

Still, a nice box and I want

I agree go used, and find a KRL not a KRA, the KRL is the premium line.

RJR99SS · 01-16-2008, 05:45 AM

Eh, should be big enough for just home usage. But....why buy a snap on box for home use? I personally wouldnt even buy one for professional use, just way too damn expensive.

+ It's not like you HAVE to use a SEARS card to shop at sears.... this is unless your other cards are maxed which in case you should not be buying tools anyway

You named your tool box?

Yea... Mines named "Big Bitch" but it kinda dwarfs that tiny one up above

DUG · 01-16-2008, 04:49 PM

I dunno, mine is pretty good sized and I have yet to feel the need to name it...

But you did find a need to pose and put a snap on emblem on a matco box

Good eye... although I was hoping one would notice that.

The badge one on it when I purchased it, I got a smokin' deal on it as a repo so who am I to complain

Don't worry...I ain't going to make any big purchases. Just a couple hundred dollars at most...something that I can pay off in a month or two.

Man that thing was fawking with me... good eye.

I have a KRL also for about 16 years now after I completely wore out my tomalley Craptco box in one year. That was the very last Matco anything I ever purchased.

Sears had a sale on deep-well impact sockets last weekend. $49 for a set of 12mm-27mm, and 1/2" to 1-1/8". Only for club members...and I wasn't one at the time

I won't buy anything crapsman every again, their quality has gone to far down hill. So as I break sockets (the only crapsman tools I have left) I replace them with snap-ons.

roverjohn · 01-17-2008, 10:02 AM

Shouldn't you push her up against a brass pole or something?

vanguard_anon · 01-17-2008, 10:42 AM

It beats the heck out of my bag of tools. I need to get serious about this stuff.
