Sounds to me like you are in the market for a new set of sliders. They are
available new. They have built in threaded mounting studs that tend to
break off during seat removal.
You need two top sliders and two bottom sliders for each seat. Each slider
is basically an 'L' shaped assy. If its not obvious that you have two
different kinds and that the two kinds can fit together you may have ether
all top sliders or all bottom sliders. Having seen the condition of many
used sliders, I don't recommend searching for used ones.
