Dave,
I just checked mine & it has the slider shoes also.
You can check to make sure the springs are operating correctly, the shoes should slide up and down easily.
Check to make sure that the shoe hasn't been bent out of shape on the leading edge and make sure that the lip of the following(2nd) slider shoe points up so it will slide over the uncoupler actuator.
