Brent,

When I was having my issues I looked at adding rollers as well. After talking to Bal? about how that would go and digging into alternatives on the internet I added Teflon like glides to the bottom of my slides. This is the first year but 1) there is no jerking and 2) they seem very stable. The wearing of the Darco has, as would be expected, stopped. I paid $2200 for 2 slides about 12' long or so; kitchen and dining/living room. It might be something to consider before delving into a new trailer.....although I'm working on DW to do the same.....so I can get a 1 ton diesel.....
