Plastic lip on top of slide has broken and will no longer hang from the guide rail.

Thanks for posting. This exact closet guide is no longer made, but the 23-093 is meant to replace it. Take a look and see what you think.

If that wheel will slip into the upper rail then it looks like the answer. The other question I have is about removal and replacement of the guide. There are no obvious screws holding it in place. Is it just bending flanges to get it hooked to the door or is there some defined method?

Yep, that about covers it. The flanges don't even necessarily have to be bent. My process is to remove the door and place it on the floor, then gently work the guide housing out with a pair of pliers. It takes a firm grip and a fair bit of patience, but as long as you work it back and forth it will come loose.

Thanks. Appreciate the answer. I figured it might be like that but I didn't want to put too much pressure in case there was some hidden screw or something.
