Hello Nemisis,

Sounds like you have the same truck as me. I had the same problem, you should be able to work the pins free using a vice and a good bit of elbow grease. Mine cleaned up well and I didn’t neeed to replace the pins.
If you are unlucky and need new carriers, take a look on eBay.

Hope this helps mate

Hi ,

Will try taking working the pins out with some heat, and will buy some new sliders I couldn’t find the carriers to suit on eBay

As Chef says , should be no need to replace the carriers IF you can get the sliders out ( Heat and a vice worked for me ) . Once out get a set of wire brushes ( bottle type ) that go on a drill , and give the inside a good going over , it will be full of old grease and crap, then get proper grease ( not copper grease or standard grease ) and sliders and should be ok
