Nice box. They last forever cept when an idiot tow truck driver gets a hold of it. Only maintenance issue I had was the oil they put on the drawer bearings turns to glue after about 15 years.

I have a Matco 76" wide with 36" deep drawers.
The drawer bearings did the same thing, got real stiff from the lube they use. Had to wash them out and relube.
Otherwise a great box. Got it from a longtime friend that upgraded to a bigger box. It was only 2yrs old.
The Matco truck took it in on trade but his lift could not pick it up.
So he sold it to me for what he had in it on trade in. We just had to load it ourselves. Used the car lift and set it on my trailer.
I got it for 2500.oo It cost 6500.oo new.

Ive used a two post to set mine in my truck before. Learned it needs plywood under it in a truck bed. Put four perfect dents in the floor from the weight.

Good boxes are heavy.
I used a small trailer.
When i got it to my shop i had to use a come along, 2 sheets of 3/4 ply and a few 2 by4s.
Then i took the wheels off the trailer and carefully rolled it off the trailer into the shop.
Lot of weight moving that i had to control but it is in with nothing crushed.
I don't want to know how much it weighs with all the tools i have in it plus the 2 Craftsman top boxes on top.

I hated moving my box. Thankfully its been in the same spot now for about 10 years.

Got my new snap ring pliers today. Knipex 8 piece set. Bought on Amazon, about $175 for the set.
