Rear 1/2" wheels on new rack were too narrow causing rack to fall off tracks
Removed 3/4" rear wheels from old damaged rack and installed them on new rack. Works fine now. For the price paid for this replacement rack, wide wheels should be included as part of the replacement package.

Upper rack rollers were broken
Removing the end caps on the rack's sliding arms was the hard part. It took some arm-wrestling and prying with a screwdriver to get them off. Replacing the rollers was a snap. Getting the end caps back on again was easier than removing them.

water leaking from under dishwasher
Water was leaking from under the GE dishwasher, but once we pulled it out, had apparently been going on for a little while. Turning the water off to the dishwasher made it stop, so it was happening even when the unit was not running, potentially indicating somewhere early in the path of the water to and into the machine.
Indeed, inspecting the water inlet vale showed a slow leak. Getting the replacement part was fine, and it fit the electrical, water inlet (existing 90-degree water inlet elbow), and water outlet connections just fine - but the original machine screws that held on the original water inlet valve did not work. It took a little research to figure out the new type of screw required, which was apparently a 10/16 Type AB, which seemed to be a less common type of sheet metal screw (with a point), as opposed to the original flat-ended machine screws. So, after ordering those separately (which were a bit expensive), it went together fine.
A note on the water inlet valve part just indicating the the threading on those parts has changed over time, so potentially ordering the screws to attach it might be worthwhile, would be good information to add about the water inlet valve.

broken top roller rack
Took off the end cap- hardest part- took some twisting-be careful not to break it. After that slid out the old part and just popped the new one in. Then it took a little while again to put the end cap back in. No tools needed.

The top drawer of the dishwasher would extend past the support rails.
The top right rail, facing the dishwasher, has a self lock tab. Using pliers, straighten the lock tab, insert the cap and then restore the lock tab to it's original position.

top rack roller separate from roller clip
had to bend back the metal tab that holds the end cap on. this is tricky and a poor design from a repair point of view. i finally got the end cap off without destroying it. replacing the broken wheel was very simple and easy.

Two rollers on top rack broke
First, I read several other repair stories on the PartSelect site. The best advice I got was in how to remove the end caps. Another customer described you had to twist them to get them out. One customer had broken the end caps trying to get them out - something I definitely wanted to avoid. I twisted out the end caps, put the new rollers in, snapped them into place, and put the end caps back on. I was done in minutes and (briefly) a hero to the wife, who hates to pay for service calls!

Rollers were broken and end cap on one side was gone.
I was really suprised at how fast the parts arrived. We used some pliers to open the slide to remove the one end cap still in place. Took what was left of the old roller off and snapped the new ones on slide the rack back into place and replaced the end caps. This was really easy. took no time at all.

2 Rack Rollers snapped
First I needed to remove the end caps on the sliding metal rails which hold the rack rollers. This was the most challenging part of the repair and the largest amount of time was devoted to getting them out without breaking them. Once these were off, I slid the rack out, removed all of the rollers and replaced them with the new ones. I guided the rollers back into the metal rails and then began trying to get the end caps back on. Again - dealing with these was the most challenging, but with patient work, they snapped back in. It was helpful to have a screwdriver to 'persuade' the end caps on and off.
