Repair Sliding Glass Door

Post by tjh408 »

I would like to replace the rollers or trucks that the sliding glass door rides on to the saloon in my 360 SS. How do I remove them or the door to access them? This would also allow access to the sliding screen door for repair.

Someone must have had to repair or replace these rollers or trucks on these doors?

tjh408, Never had to replace them, but i do know on my 89 Santego they are adjustable. I'm thinking that its likely that you could adjust the roller were they are retracted up into the door, then lift the door and tilt out of the track from the bottom, much in the same way as you would with a sliding door in a house. I could be wrong, you may be the one to have to experiment and let the rest of us know. Good Luck!

The trick on ours was to remove plastic slider on the top first, pulls right out afterward.
