Yes I thought of that. I am certain it would have adhesion difficulties. If it were OEM you could have a strip of teflon molded with spike tabs and push it into the rail on the wear side. Hell I even was thinking adjustable cam rollers but since it does last a few years like it is, using teflon instead of delrin or UHMW and polishing the rail will substantially increase the life.

Cam rollers and it could go up and down a thousand times a day for the next 30 years till the rest of the truck rusts off the frame leaving the cam roller only.

As for when? I went over to look at my first truck, it is in a fenced in area beside my work. The electric gate failed and it is trapped in there LOL. I have plans to tow it home and finish it here but I can't because it is trapped. I will look at the gate monday.
