How to remove glass sliding door from track?

[Ready2go]

I have an aluminum-framed glass sliding door. the runners are wearing-out fast and I want to change them for new ones. WD40 Specialist can only do so much.

I know the drill for removing sliding doors but this one does not move up enough to clear the bottom track. the door is bigger than the opening. I've tried using pry-bars to lever the door over the lip, I've tried the door in different positions and nothing is working.  Sorry the photos don't show much.
