    Finally did it... Got a US General 44" Roller, but...

    Part II The inner slide should just push out of the outter slide. Take the roller ball pieces and hold on to them, I cleaned and relubed mine while I had them apart. There are two for each slide so 8 total. I set a depth guage to 1 1/4 and cut them. When I put them back together I put the...
