Default Old Snap-On box drawer slides. Sources?

I’ve heard old Snap On boxes are kinda collectible, so I would think there would be some aftermarket and original parts available. I have a Snap-On box I bought used right after highschool. I believe it’s from the early to mid 60’s. Anyway one of the drawer pulls has been bent for years, making that drawer a PIA to open or close. I have a nice newer roll around chest, but I still use this one too, so would like to find new drawer rails if possible.
Anyone know a source? Unbelievably I could find none online.
Thanks

I got mine replaced under warranty from a Snap On Dealer.

Your box should have a date code stamped on the back by the model number.

Snap-On may or may not have parts for a box that old, but call them and ask.

I found a set on E-Bay, the only ones listed for this style box. So my choices were buy them at stupid money, or keep not using this drawer on my tool box. I coughed up the money. Nice have that drawer back now.
