    There's really no right way of doing this. You might just have to force it out. You also might have to order a rail.

      I think Screwtape is right. You can try lifting as you pull, but forcing it is the best way to describe it. The rail is either broken or the screws came loose, but there is a good chance you may end up replacing the rail.
      Is the glass half full or half empty? I say neither. The glass is obviously full, full of potential. The potential to hold more water or the potential to quench a thirst. Life is all about how you see it.

        The bearing balls that sit on a track come out of place.

          Screwtape is right. Get ready to use a pry bar or a heavy screwdriver to break the rail open and get the ball bearing out. Have had to do this one too many times myself.
          PS have someone there to help you.
