Cabinet makers need help

I have 3 long drawers beneath my 48" stove where I store my pots and pans. It's about 44" wide 22" deep with two 18" 100# Ferrari glides.

The right glide on one of the three gets stuck after the first inner most/smallest "step," which moves flawlessly. I replaced that glide it with another (exact - to be clear) one and it still gets stuck after the first step. I don't recall how long it was ok before the second one went on the fritz.

In the back of my mind I thought someone told me this is really a tracking/geometry issue rather than a hardware one. Do I need a thin shim? Do I need to put a third one beneath the drawer? Or more glides on the side? Any tricks to help solve the problem would be appreciated.

Good luck. I hope someone who does this kind of work can understand what you said, because it lost me.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Thanks for the help. I called Chris - wrong slides (were 150# needed 250#), they were walking. Replaced them and all is well. Thanks again!!!
