Slide out gear pack rollers

I Was running a camera wire under the trailer and noticed that one of the rollers next to the slide gear was cracked, this is the gear the slide rail rolls on, continued investigation found that one of the gearpack rollers on the other slide was cracked as well. As it turns out, after spending a lot of time online, you need to buy the whole assembly to replace one plastic ( that’s right, plastic) roller. The whole gearpack assembly cost 45 bucks, I’ll guess the plastic roller is prolly worth 3 bucks max. Anyone else have this problem and find a source for just the roller?

    how did you find them? I’ve spent a few hours on Amazon all I’ve found is the whole assembly, what’s the magic word?
  • $45 is cheap for a slide out repair

    the rollers have subject to additional wear

    replace the whole thing and avoid future problems
