I've looked at them, scratched my head and come up with zilch so far.

I had a similar problem. *

The links and pics posted by previous posters show pretty high-end
trucks and tracks. *On mine, the track was a single rail and the
trucks had a single wheel. *I got the door off by taking of the trim,

A contractor friend suggested that I try using a car jack or something
similar to spread the pocket as much as possible to get access, but it
didn't work because there were cabinets on both sides. *It might work
if you have open walls.

How much do you think you could spread the pocket before messing up
those little studs? You're also more likely to crack the drywall.

If the cabinets are not full height, you could open up the wall
further down and use bit extenders and self-tapping hex heads in a
magnetic bit holder. A pain in the ass, but it's rock and a hard
place.
