Craftsman 70665105 tool chest Parts

Yes. On the Craftsman tool chest model 70665105, you can remove the drawers so the cabinet is lighter and easier to move; most drawers come out by releasing the slide locks (or tabs) on each side, then pulling the drawer straight out.

• Empty the drawer completely (tools add a lot of weight fast).
• Pull the drawer out until it stops.
• Look for a release lever or tab on each slide rail (one side often pushes up while the other pushes down).
• Hold both releases at the same time.
• Pull the drawer forward and lift slightly to clear the slide ends.
• Set the drawer on a flat surface to avoid bending the slides.

• Lock the lid/top (if your chest has a top compartment) and close all remaining drawers.
• Keep the cabinet upright; tipping can rack the frame and misalign drawer tracks.
• Roll slowly over thresholds; casters can snag and twist the cabinet.
• If you must lift, lift from the frame, not the drawer fronts or handles.

Removing drawers reduces weight and prevents the drawer slides from twisting while you move the box. That helps the drawers glide smoothly afterward and reduces the chance of bent rails or misaligned tracks.

For a tool cabinet or tool chest like Craftsman model 70665105, the ideal depth is the shallowest size that still fits your largest tools comfortably. Most home and garage tool cabinets land in the 18 to 24 inch depth range because it balances storage capacity, stability, and easy drawer access.

• 18 to 20 inches: Best for tight garages, hand tools, and keeping drawers easy to reach
• 22 to 24 inches: Best all-around depth for mixed hand tools and bulkier cases
• Over 24 inches: Best when you store large power tools, organizers, or deep trays (but it can get harder to reach items in the back)

Use these quick checks before you commit:

• Measure your largest tool case (impact kit, socket set case, drill case) front-to-back
• Add 1 to 2 inches for clearance so drawers close without forcing
• Confirm you can still walk past the cabinet with drawers closed (and ideally with a drawer open)
• If you plan to add a top chest later, keep the base depth compatible
• If the cabinet will be mobile, deeper is not always better; extra depth can increase tip risk when drawers are loaded

Depth affects more than looks. It changes how safely the tool chest rolls, how easily you can find tools in drawers, and whether the cabinet fits your workflow (especially in a narrow bay or along a workbench).

If you are matching accessories or looking up replacement items by model number, start with the model parts list, then search by model on Sears PartsDirect. For model identification tips, use how to find your appliance model number (and what it means for parts).

On a Craftsman tool chest like model 70665105, the model number is typically on a sticker (or stamped into the metal) inside the cabinet. We most often see it on the inside back panel, a side wall, or on a frame rail near the drawer slides and lock area.

Look for a paper label, foil sticker, or stamped characters in these spots:

• Inside the top drawer area (open the top drawer and look along the cabinet walls)
• Inside the cabinet behind the drawers (pull drawers out and look at the back panel)
• On a vertical frame support near the front corners (top or bottom)
• Near the lock cylinder or latch mechanism (inside the drawer bank)
• On the back exterior panel (especially if the inside label is missing)

These steps work well on older and newer Craftsman chests:

• Empty the top drawer so you can see the side walls clearly
• Use a flashlight and look for a reflective foil label
• Check for stamped numbers along the inner cabinet lip or frame rails
• If drawers are removable, slide one out and inspect the cabinet side and rear panel
• Wipe dusty areas with a dry cloth; labels are often hidden under grime

For Craftsman tool storage, the model number is usually a short numeric string (often 6 to 10 digits). For this page, the model number format looks like:

Using the exact model number helps us match the correct tool chest parts and hardware (drawer slides, locks, casters, handles) so fit and mounting holes line up correctly.

If you are ordering or cross-checking parts, search by the full model number on the parts list first, or use Sears PartsDirect to search by model number.

Craftsman tool boxes are made for the Craftsman brand by different manufacturers depending on the product line and when it was produced. For a Craftsman tool chest like model 70665105, the most reliable way to confirm the maker and country of origin is to check the data plate or label on the cabinet, then use that information when searching parts on Sears PartsDirect.

Look for a label inside a drawer, on the back panel, or near the caster frame. It typically includes the details that identify who built the cabinet.

• Model number (should match 70665105)
• Serial number
• Manufacturing date code
• Country of origin (for example, USA, Mexico, China)
• Compliance markings and factory codes

Craftsman is a brand name; the company that owns the brand and the company that physically manufactures a specific tool chest are not always the same.

Tool storage parts like drawer slides, locks, keys, casters, and handle hardware are highly design-specific. Confirming the exact model and label information prevents ordering parts that fit a different Craftsman series or production run.

When you search, use the full model number 70665105 exactly as shown on the label. If you also have a serial number or date code, keep it handy because it can help narrow down compatible replacement hardware.
