I need to replace these face frame sockets. They appear to be just a hair under 4in long. What part number do you suggest? Also, the cabinet side metal tract appears to be slightly bent downward toward the rear. Is that typical or does it need to be replaced? That part is 16 in long.

We may have a socket that could work for you. before I recommend anything, can you tell me the size of the opening that accepts the track?
I'm not sure about that bend you mention. It's tough to make out a particular bend in your photo, but it may just be at rick of the angle. I can tell you some tracks have a slight bend to allow it to close by itself, but it doesn't seem your track has such a bend.

I don't know what opening you are talking about.You have a part that looks very similar to the picture that I sent. I think I'll just order a set of those and be done with it.

I'm talking about the opening of the socket where the track plugs in. There are a lot of different opening sizes out there and I want to make sure that the part we recommend will actually work with your current track. It won't do you any good if you try to plug the track into the new socket only to find that it's too small, or too loose.
