The two 24 inch deep drawers under the dinette seats had their rails only supported by broken plastic supports at the inside end.
After looking in our local RV store and not finding the correct replacement piece of plastic, I considered replacing the rails with heavier duty rails, then I decided I didn't need to buy anything at all.
I cut two pieces of wood, and screwed them alongside the drawer rails on the outside with flat headed screws that didn't interfere with the rollers. The rails are now supported down to the floor along their length by the wood pieces, and the drawer will now hold as much weight as we want to put in it.
