Drawer runners

A few years ago, we put up a bedroom unit consisting of bedside drawers, and overhead cupboards, all in one big unit. When we were building this up, I remember that the runners for the drawers, were already in place on the side panels, and, I think, we just had to screw the sides of the drawers to the runners. They were the ball bearing type, when extended, prevent the drawer being removed.  A couple of these now need replacing, and I've no idea where to start. I've removed one for measurements, and all the ball bearings gone. I can't honestly see, how these held together. I've measured one, and it is  24.5cm long, when not extended. What I want to know is, what type to look for, and how do I fit them? Drawer first, or side panel?
