Need Husky locking mechanism.

I have a job site box by Husky model #656220. I am missing the locking mechanism. I have called Husky and Home Depot and they can't find that model. Does anyone know where I can get one?

Take a close look at the lock. Sometimes your local lock smith can get you a lock cylinder with the correct tab on the back. Other times, you have call up places Tractor supply or Redneck Trailer (two off the top of my head) and get the latch and lock rivet on assembly. The lock cylinder should run under $10 and the Assy used to be around $25.

This box accepts a padlock Master #5 or American #50. That should be easy to find. The problem is that the box is missing a metal piece that you place the shackle of the padlock throught it, then you insert it the opening of the box and put a bolt throught it. Then it is secure. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks
PS I am going to see a locksmith tomorrow.

Guys, Thank you for your help. Problem solved
I went to Home Depot and they couldn't figure it out. I saw a Klein job box on display and measured the opening that would accept the padlock and it was identical to the Husky. I asked if I could borrow the mechanism and it worked perfectly. They were great. They gave me the parts for free.
Again, thank you for all the help.
