how hard is it to change sliders with suspension in machine

[CaptCaper]

so easy,loosen track,remove front screw,make sure you have the right screwdriver,dont want to strip that bolt,you might have to cut the opening in the track a little so the slider fits thru the hole ,then go at the back of the sled and insert a flat screw driver in between the rail and the slide,pry the slide downwards so it comes off the rail,at the same time rotate the track with your hands so the slide enters the opening and make it stick out a good 2'',start your sled,pop in reverse and get the track turning,it will fall on the floor in seconds,good luck

Well Pat the Rat your the man. My wife burnt up here sliders down to the rail. I'm glad I caught it in time. I did it your way this time. It was so easy. I'm so glad you posted.

dont need an air chisel

try cutting the slider lenghtwise the entire length of the slider, then cut the slider all the way through at the half way point, peel back the slider in the middle with a screwdriver or chisel, grab on to the slider with a pair of vise grips and pull. slliders come right out, works great, no damage to the track or rails and no compressor needed.
