Hi Ryan - relatively easy job. Remove cover by removing wood screws. Under it there is a block screwed to the hatch that you remove to slide the hatch free. Then more screws to remove the track. There's wood - looks like plywood - inside the raised deck. Mine had some moisture. I wanted to make the job bigger so I drilled large (e.g., .5") clearing holes down to intersect the horizontal screw holes (and also where the vertical cover screws were placed) and dried and filled w/epoxy. Don't know if 5' is enough (I did all this for fun - didn't need to replace track). If you skip the epoxy and just caulk, can easily do in a couple hours.
5 feet is enough for 1 side you will most likly find a little water damage i filled yhr holes and used a good quality adheasive sealent and glued the tracks back on no holes = no water no leaks just clamp in place for a day not a lot of pressure is needed beacuse the run is fairly stright it has been i place for 5
