Replacing Freezer Sliders on the Amana Refrigerator ARB2517CS

Amana is a company that manufactures kitchen appliances, such as refrigerators. They have a line of refrigerators, like the ARB-series refrigerators, that feature a slide-out freezer located on the bottom of the unit. These freezers operate on sliders located at either side of the freezer bin. If the freezer isn't shutting properly, it could be the result of a bad slider. You can remove and replace these sliders in a matter of minutes.
