ok I have finally done mine,sorry no tech doc as I dont have digi camera anymore, anyways I have found the quickest way to do it:
As above you will need the rollers that are pictured,I paid 3.50 at bunnings.
Take out window
1)undo the stopper at the top of the channel
2)undo the 2 bolts to the channel that the rollers sit into
3)Jiggle the mechanism around a bit untill you are able to get the bracket that hold the window out,as you will see this is the part that holds the nylon bushes.
4)when you have this bracket above the window sill get someone to hold it while you grind off the old metal bits that held the nylon shit,grind them off and then grind right down to the bracket
5)get a punch and punch out the holes
6)get your new rollers,I threw out the nylon locknuts as it was giving me the shits trying to do the up with nothing to grip onto,so I just used a nut and washer.
7)Grease up everything that moves and all channels/guides
8)now with the bracket that has the new rollers in: feed the rollers into the channel but watch that you have positioned the arm with the black roller in its channel too,because the channel is still unscrewed its should be relatively easy to get everything lined up,if things seem to be a bit difficult try winding it down or up
9)now everything is in place pull channel back through and just do it up where the old screws left their marks,give everything a quick test and then put the window back in followed by the stopper that goes at the top of the channel.
I know reading through probably makes no sense but it may help..
