Replace any slide rollers?

[woodtouch6]

Has anyone ever had to replace any slide rollers? I have one that needs replaced as a couple ball bearings came out as I retracted the slide today.

I need suggestions if anyone has replaced any of these.

Thanks,

Robert

I just had one of mine replaced at Newmar. But they are not ball bearings. All plastic.

I had them cleaned at Newmar and they identified 2 that needed replacement and I had them do it. I am not sure how it is done but they put some 2x4's between the slide and frame so it takes the weight off the rollers so they spin easily to clean/replace.

They extend the slide half way out, jam 2x4’s on the top outside to prevent top side retracting. Than activate retract switch little bit at the time. That tilts the slide,and lifts the rollers off the floor.
Also very important to watch inside top trim on the slide, not hitting anything going up. It can cause some damage
