Message: [QUOTE="Garbage_Mechanic, post: 1471326, member: 1610"] Amazing what lack of lube, build up of dust and dirt and time will do for our doors. Can't tell you the number that started with "dang __________ broke" that is really just a lack of lube plus dirt build up. I like to gut the doors of all moving parts and use a solvent such as diesel, paint thinner or Zep 75 to dissolve all the dried up old grease combined with dust and dirt dried on. Amazing how much dirt will be in the latches them selves. Then after blowing it dry and cleaning again with Berrymans or Brakeclean, I lube the latches inner and outer door handles, linkages, and window regulator with a penetrating spray grease with teflon powder, or high quality motorcycle chain lube such as motul NOT spray white grease or any other high viscosity spray grease. Just did this a few weeks ago on the 96, second time since I got it back in 2003. Works sooo smooth now! [/QUOTE]
