Default Garage Door Repair Question

Hello,

Hello,

Will be going over to friends house tomorrow to try and help repair his
garage door.
Haven't seen it yet, but do have two questions even now.

It looks like a hinge bracket and roller will need to be replaced; the kind
with the roller going thru it.

It is in the middle of the door.

a. Is there any trick to getting the new roller itself into the track, or
do they just slip in, usually, if you just
tilt them a bit ?

b. The uppermost roller may also need to be rplaced.
I believe it's a simple plate with just the roller going thru it; no hinge,
of course, as it's the uppermost one.

Went to HD, but all they seem to have are the hinge/roller brackets.
Nothing for just a roller without the hinge.

Quite surprised, but am wondering if I am missing something here.
The instructions printed on the back of the packaging card are just about
unreadable, but it does seem to show that it is, somehow, suitable fo this
uppermost position.

Are these usable in the uppermost position, somehow ? How ?

Thanks,
Bob
