With the help frrom you tube,at 79 I did myself 

Myself with parts I ordered 

We have owned our current dishwasher about 5 years. It is a Maytag. Overall, we have been pleased with the unit. A few days, my wife opened the dishwasher and pulled the top rack forward and the Top Rack Slides (I now know them to be the "Adjusters", failed on both sides. The part is a metal piece with plastic bonded to the top portion. The plastic portion is the way the unit adjusts the rack height. The plastic simply disintegrated!. No indication of abuse or heavy use. It's just the 2 of us. Anyway. using the AppliancePartsPros.com website, I quickly identified the correct parts. And got them ordered. I paid for next-day delivery. The parts arrived and fit perfectly. The replacement was pretty easy. 

I purchased and left and right adjuster and installed them rather easily. Everything is working and the upper rack is fully functional again! 

I went online to Appliance Parts Pros and found the drawings to allow me to order the correct parts. I received an acknowledgement of the order and a shipping confirmation within a few minutes. The parts arrived the next day and I was able to get them installed in about 30 minutes. 

We replaced the adjusters very easily. All necessary pieces were in the parts we ordered. 

Replaced adjusters was very easy and parts fit perfectly.
