I am thinking that I may just need to remove the original plastic slide to measure its closed and open positions. Thanks for any additional info you might have on this.

Yes, you got it. i drilled out the factory rivets. Transfered those holes in the factory piano hinge to the new slide and then drilled them. I then reinstalled new rivets into the old piano hinge/new slide and used the factory screws on the other side. Make sure you get a slide that has a lever to take the slide apart.

Search ebay for a "1-3/4" x 22" slide rail."

I need a minimum of 19" of travel on mine
