Bedroom sliding doors bottom track broken

Seems that the plastic track under the sliding bedroom doors is broken causing the doors to resist closing. I would love to replace the plastic track with a metal one. Anybody solved this problem?

I believe the new tracks are now metal. You might call Newmar and see if you can replace the plastic with the metal one.

Slider Track

I replaced our broken plastic bottom track with an aluminum U shaped pieces purchased from Lowe’s. It was almost dimensional identical to the original plastic track. The aluminum extrusions are located in the hardware section of the store along with the steel bars and wither shapes.
